Ensure that your technicians are aware of the appropriate methods by which you should lift a customer car.
Because one customer will come along and catch your tech in a very expensive snafu. Don't lift it via the rockers.

Jeez, Hope they pay a ton for whatever needs to be fixed!
Like it's not that hard to find the right lift point, or anything that's suitable.

Oh my god. This is inexcusable. I'm a teenager with next to no wrenching experience but when I put my car on my buddies lift the first time I didn't consider for a moment that lifting it by plastic body panels was a good idea.
Holy hell these people worked on your car.
That's terrifying.

That is ridiculous....
Especially if it was a Dodge dealer.....Most of their cars have pretty obvious lift points and usually they learn those basic things.....

Gaaah! Make them pay. Or set them on fire. Possibly both.

It's a big problem with dodge darts. People jac them up wrong all the time.

Shit. If they refuse to pay, take a torch to the lift arms and bend them in different directions.

I do any of my own work that isn't warranty and the techs are all my coworkers anyway, but I did basically this same thing to myself. Our lifts are a little different, as shown in my crude edit, and it was the first time my car was ever on a lift. I had the lift pad on the pinch weld, and ONLY the pinch weld, but the arm was so close to the pad that it squished the rockers. The problem is that the pinch weld is even with the rocker panel, yours was lifted improperly, but it's easy to fuck it up even when you're doing it right. Now I know to use a piece of wood as a spacer on these lifts. Also, ever other Mopar, except perhaps the Viper, has plastic rocker panels and some techs just shouldn't be working on cars to begin with, so I'm not shocked that they lifted it like this.
