Take the emotions out of the equation and I simply don't see what all the fuss is about. If it were me, I would have given the dealership about a week to make a decision, then I would have called my insurance and let them process the claim. (I pretty much bet his personal insurance will have to pay, depending on the dealership agreement he signed when he dropped it off, that is usually what happens). Then, when everything flushed, and I still wasn't happen with the outcome, it would be time to talk to an attorney and suit the dealership. No need in all the drama, it is just a business decision.
He did have a USED car with 10,000 miles on it. That used car has a value, period. Either he is made whole based on the actual value (not his perceived, trumped up, pain and suffering or sentimental value), with check or another car or he lets a jury decide what is fair.
Gee, how simple was that????? LOL
