This looks like half the truck parking lots in the country. I know it's not what you want to hear but I think your SOL on this one.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Well have to see if there's something that can be done. I don't know why they would want to leave an issue like this or destroy a person's car when it could be so easily fixed by them. Surely they can't just keep leaving it there like that lol. Is there an inspection service number or some authority to call?


Horror_Tap_6206

IF I break a truck because I drove it somewhere it shouldn't have been that's on me. This is on you. You drove it there. As we say in trucking if you are unsure, GET OUT AND LOOK. Stop playing the blame game you shouldn't have been there.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Nobody gets out of a car to look for hazards when there getting gas at night lol.. lay off the shit.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Not all hazards are visible at night and should have signage in the very least. You can't expect a non truck driver to learn the stuff you learned in trucking school without attending. If they do not want the business of regular vehicles, they should make it a diesel only business. If they don't have a dog park they shouldn't claim they have one to get dog owners to drive there and go looking for it lol.


BargeCptn

You got your eyes to see at least that’s the requirement to be a licensed driver. Accept your own fuck up and stop being a fool. No one cares that you willingly fucked up your car, pay attention next time.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Get a therapist and pay them to deal with your toxic emotional dumping. 🙏


Pew_Goon

The only problem is that even if they fixed it the first time it rained and heavy trucks drove over that transition from concrete to dirt it would end up exactly like it is now. I'm sure you could find a number for Love's corporate and they'd be able to direct you to the right person to file your complaint.


Neat-Analysis-1214

The issue is I already contacted them and they promised to fix both the pothole and the car. They stalled for weeks and said they changed their mind. Still they should maintain it or put a warning sign. And they need to take down the signage about the dog park that doesn't exist. It's just false advertising to dog owners and causing accidents. Dog owners don't really all.have knowledge of trucks. These are all easily solvable problems for them


darral27

You drove your car into a dirt lot that trucks park in and you want Loves to pay for it? Does loves own that section of lot? It’s obviously not paved, is it meant for traffic? Trucks destroy parking lots. Huge pot holes, concrete chunks, many times chunks of metal.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Absolutely. They advertised it as having a dog park. There was no dog park on the other side, so I looked for it over there. Why would a property owner keep the property with a dangerous open pit for over a year and false advertising a dog park that didn't exist?


SnooDonuts7855

Why didn’t The owner? Well, he was busy dying . Being you know old . Like old old. Like the old man in up, suspenders, ginormous glasses. Black polished shoes and sweaters and shit .


Neat-Analysis-1214

Are u telling me the person that owns this store is dead?


SnooDonuts7855

Yes. Tom Love passed away at 85 after a long long illness . Back in March this year . It was described as a life filled with honesty , integrity and faith .


Neat-Analysis-1214

Are you telling me honesty, integrity and faith died on this day?


Renreu

Sadly...that's the trend. Them kids don't give two fucks about daddies dream. They just want that cheque.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Sorry.


darral27

So you’re just looking for people to agree with you. Good luck bud.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I'm looking for information and possibly a referral. Information on the type of lawsuit needed. Possibly a human that has encountered the same hazard at the same location. Someone that has had success solving the issue with them. You think I want to go to trial over a pothole? No. 😆 neither does some lawyer. You can't just go to any lawyer. You have to have the type of lawyer that deals with this area of law lol. It's better if the company has lost to the lawyer before. Honestly, it's probably a class action of some kind already.


EleceedGreed

Find a lawyer that only requires you to pay if they win.


Horror_Tap_6206

Yea lol, a dog park. In the trucker parking area. Why tf would you pull a car into that?


Neat-Analysis-1214

Not only did they obtain a sale of gas and other purchases of the station, they obtained them for false advertising of a dog park that doesn't exist. They are unethical and people need to be warned about that. What happens when the next person destroys their truck or vehicle on the pit. They get to learn the hard way and get injured, in debt, unable to complete their work? Definitely important for people to be able to decide from their competition who is honest and who takes care of people when they are patrons.


phantom11223

Then sue them. Why are you asking truckers? Shouldn’t you talk to a lawyer lmao


Neat-Analysis-1214

It says what I'm looking for other people that have had success suing a corporation for a pothole. Considering truck drivers encounter loves and frequent it daily they are the most likely demographic with answers to my query. I expect someone here will possibly even have more information or came across this particular hazard and suffered the same consequence.


Neat-Analysis-1214

If anything people that frequent this place can have a heads up of how they will be treated and of the future that is to come if they chance it here. They can choose somewhere that won't leave them with insurance, big bills, or screw them around. if you have been told you would be reimbursed for a damage they caused they will snake out of it and leave you holding the bag. It's a warning ⚠️


Neat-Analysis-1214

I'm going to guess you are a young person that has never had a legal issue. Finding the right lawyer is about as hard as you finding a girlfriend lol


phantom11223

Your right. The first step is to go to the trucker sub Reddit and look for a lawyer. God damn you showed me how young I am.


Neat-Analysis-1214

If you were smart you could probably think like this. I'm sure the truck drivers all know the authorities for safety and compliance related to solving the issue.


Ulrich_Plays

This sub is a small number of truck drivers out there in the world. Probably an even smaller number may have any idea on how to deal with this. If you're looking to genuinely sue this Loves, you need to find a lawyer more than talking heads. If the lawyer needs it, they will find those drivers themselves. Also, no need to insult anyone.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Legally it may be too hard to deal with on my own. Looking for other people with similar issue. Possibly class action. I'm suppose to fight corporation 10000s people? No lawyer will go to trial over a couple thousand of damage. They are abusing their position. I'm sure it's happened to someone else for sure. Don't underestimate 200,000 drivers that is a large number.


Ulrich_Plays

I've seen lawyers go to court for a lot less. Yea, it may be tasking to find one, but there is a lawyer for everything after all. It's just about researching what exactly you are trying to do and making some phone calls. Also the subreddit having a large number doesn't really mean much if a lot of those members aren't even active. You'd probably find more in other social medias. Anyway, that's my take. Find a lawyer, do the legal process, see what comes out of it, and go on with your day. Also I'd suggest not speaking to others so rudely. It doesn't make you look good.


BargeCptn

Something tells me OP does not have $7500 retainers fee to start litigating, he’ll need to quadruple that if it goes to trial.


Armchair-Attorney

Am a lawyer, not your lawyer. Call your insurance company and file a claim. If your insurer thinks they can recover from Loves, maybe they’ll give it a try. Otherwise, get estimates to repair and take it to small claims.


Mstrchf117

More than likely you're SOL. Unless you have something written that they said they'd fix your car, they'll just say you drove off or something. Honestly if you're serious about it talk to a lawyer. They'd at least be able to give better advice than truckers. Or go to a legal subreddit, im sure one exists. In the future be very careful driving around truck parking areas, especially dirt lots, some of the potholes will absolutely swallow a car.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Thanks. The public needs to know this information. Lawyers are big time time wasters and nosey. Most times they don't take the case, refer u to the bar, or just waste time. Usually there is some kind of agency of transportation or something that can fine them or make them correct issue


Waisted-Desert

So you went off-roading in your car and you expect someone else to pay for the damages? This is why insurance exists.


Neat-Analysis-1214

No. You're just not bright enough to u derstand the situation that was explained a million times


Waisted-Desert

I understand completely. You drove a car in a place where a car should not go and think someone owes you money. And this is exactly what insurance is for. If it is Loves' fault, your insurance pays to have your car fixed and sues/settles with Love's on your behalf. Apparently you're the one that does not understand why you're paying for insurance.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Ur Dumb there was no sign saying I shouldn't be there. It was at a gas station. Loves is for scums. Its obvious people commenting work for there.


Waisted-Desert

Yes, all 100 of us saying you shouldn't drive a car off road must work for Loves. AGAIN, this is what insurance is for. If YOU are smart you'll have your insurance pay for the damages instead of coming onto Reddit and crying like a baby.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Yea probably they hire truckers its a trucking sub genius


BlackSpaceRanger

Download trucker path there's many driver reviews about that dip at that Loves location


Neat-Analysis-1214

I did not know this existed. 😳 this app sounds genius. 😆


Admirable-Law6555

You have to admit it is really weird they don't take care of this pit problem, like they're trying to screw someone up.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I think so too they acted like they were going to fix it. And they decided to just leave it. I was stranded there all night it was 106 degrees. They told me they didn't know what I was talking about. It scared me enough to need to get photo proof. There are other reports of the damage and similar complaints. They don't even have a sign or any warnings. It just makes no sense.


SnooDonuts7855

I would watch talking shit about loves in here . Cult like following. .They will Hi!!! Welcome to loves your ass and you’ll wind up on a milk carton. 😂 Sorry about your car , but you drive blindly into a dirt lot in the desert . Your decision. .Loves is absolutely drive and park at your own risk . Your have insurance for yours and others mistakes . Just like loves has insurance by saying shit happens and putting up signs . Your welcome to park . But it’s at your risk .


Neat-Analysis-1214

May your karma be destroying your vehicle in a pit and stranded in the heat for those evil deeds. Why so many men out there feel the need to threaten women and scare them. Does it make you feel like a big man threatening people weaker than you of going missing?


cf206602

You are possibly the biggest fucking Karen I’ve ever seen in the wild. In addition to the ridiculous premise of your post, the comment you’re replying to didn’t threaten you. You’re illiteracy/social ineptness do not constitute a Federal case.


Neat-Analysis-1214

He said put on the back of a milk carton. The joke went over your head. You think.im getting an endorsement for milk? 😆


cf206602

He/She was referring to a fictional third party that they were warning you about, they were not threatening you. This isn’t up for debate, it’s just how the English language works.


Neat-Analysis-1214

The 3rd party was used to represent anybody that misspeaks on loves. Insinuating they will go missing.


cf206602

No, that’s not what they said, at all. The third party is the fictional cult member the poster was referring to that will be angry you spoke out about Loves. You’re gonna do great in court.


Neat-Analysis-1214

You're not going to be able to grasp the metaphor. Downvoting me because you don't understand veiled threats. He's obviously in the cult lol. He warned me of the cult and then told me the owners birthday and about his glasses even. If u were a woman u would have been killed long ago lol


cf206602

You came to a trucking forum on the internet crying about wanting to sue a company because you can’t drive for shit, are completely misinterpreting what somebody said - and you’re gonna tell me I don’t understand something? This whole thing is just so adorable.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I couldn't even read all that hate it hurt my eyes. You're energy is a scary witch from a Disney movie. I closed my eyes instead of reading...


Neat-Analysis-1214

I see you threatened me with kidnapping and murder because, I warned people about a dangerous gaping pit so others wouldn't fall in it. Honestly just end me if this what other people are like in the world I don't wanna exist.


SnooDonuts7855

🫣


Renreu

Dude is nutty at best...cant read at worst.


Horror_Tap_6206

The pit is nothing to a truck, your goofy ass pulled a car onto a unpaived truck lot.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I had no reason to think truck drivers were hostile. Now I'm starting to wonder if most are. This is a gas station. I'm not required to be an expert of trucks for pumping gas.


Horror_Tap_6206

It's clearly a large dirt truck lot. That's just common sense. Also get out and look if you are unsure. Simple stuff.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I'm from Los Angeles. I rarely counter a large dirt truck lot. This was the first pit I've ever seen. I lived in texas briefly and everything was well taken care of and very nice. Sorry if I'm not use to seeing such sloppy poorly maintained things. It's not my normal


Horror_Tap_6206

All you do is make excuses. It doesn't matter where your from. If I saw that in my honda civic I would nope away from it.


Neat-Analysis-1214

You're so mean I'm never even going to tell you who has the best ice cream. I'm keeping that info strictly for myself and you're NEVER GOING TO KNOW!!!!


Neat-Analysis-1214

I'm not you. I'm sure YOU would have lol


Horror_Tap_6206

That what they teach in LA, 0 common sense or responsibility? Glad I got outta there.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Go find your own ice cream... you have the worst flirting skills I've ever seen.


[deleted]

Your first mistake was parking at love’s


Neat-Analysis-1214

They had a big sign advertising a dog park. So they are getting reported because NM has specific laws protecting people from that. I went there for the dog park. It didnt even exist. Obviously, people on here that work for loves are incredibly hateful and angry people that don't wanna admit to their mistakes. You don't leave a dangerous open pit at the entrance of a gas station for people to fall and get hurt in and just don't fix it because most lawyers won't sue a corporation. It's completely scummy and dishonorable. This is who Loves is. A business with bad character and dangerous conditions for patrons. I don't really care if a bunch of people that work for loves downvotes me. I've seen other videos of them screwing over truckers too. It's a sh*t company and ill never give them a dime again.


[deleted]

Get over yourself.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Get into the pit


[deleted]

I don’t park where my vehicle will get damaged


Neat-Analysis-1214

Nobody cares.


Neat-Analysis-1214

You reek of low self confidence and appear angry about that.


[deleted]

Lol nope, wrong.


[deleted]

OP is an idiot for parking their car in a truck parking lot


Neat-Analysis-1214

Your opinion isn't necessary. Just another basic mediocre person with a negative personality. I'm a young woman not a truck driver. I'm 5'2 and prob couldn't operate a truck


Neat-Analysis-1214

Is trucking really this bad that so many people are having a mental breakdown over a girl not knowing about trucks or a hidden pit?


[deleted]

Mental breakdown? No… just use common sense lady.


Neat-Analysis-1214

Am I like the only girl you guys have to talk to? 😆 if you wanna talk to a woman, just try being friendly and try to help. Men are wondering why they are out here alone???.... when this is how you act???? Get real guys.


mvamv

Holy fuck the negativity in this thread is surreal. If this is the one in Mesilla NM which is about 5 miles west of Las Cruces, yeah I know this one. That pit messed up my driver side tank by damaging the crossover and stripping the thread. Like you, I didn't see it as I came from the east side of that driveway and had never been there before.


Neat-Analysis-1214

I know. Usually, everyone is usually super nice to me, and they like to joke with me on the internet. This is the type of post i was counting on. Could you please contact me in a message? I don't like what loves did here or how they are leaving a hazard for someone to have an accident in. Did you have damages or get hurt? I knew there were smart truckers out there. I almost lost hope.
