I'm concerned for this guy, though. Yes, with the video, he may have the goods on them and be able to give the dealership some real grief, but he could (?) also be setting himself up for some serious retaliation. In a state like Louisiana, a lot of people, including dealer employees, have guns, and you don't want to mess with them. Even if they don't shoot you, you can get the crap beat out of you.

Toyota dealer employee caught stealing money from customer car and watching ****
http://www.autoblog.com/2009/07/07/v...ough-customer/
From Autoblog:
Have you ever had the feeling that the service guy at your local dealership is rummaging through your things? Perhaps even a few quarters are missing. A guy named Jason knows all too well about dealership employees going through his stuff – on two different occasions, Jason noticed that things were missing from his Toyota Tundra after getting it serviced at Hampton Toyota of Lafayette. One time, over $10 in quarters were reportedly stolen, and the next time, Jason says about half his quarters were gone.
After complaining about his problems to dealership management, he received no response. So he rigged a digital video camera to the passenger side door and recorded his Tundra's next service appointment. What he saw from the video footage was priceless. In one video clip, the technician rummages through his pills, even licking the medicine's residue on his hand. He also takes some quarters from the truck. Videos that were later removed from YouTube reportedly shows one man watching what sounds like pornography on a diagnostic computer.
Instead of again complaining to dealership management, this time Jason took the DVD to the local media, and sent a copy to the owner of the dealership, along with a letter detailing what happened to him. Consumerist reports that the dealer's owner immediately fired the three workers caught on video, along with the service manager that ignored his complaints. Jason also received an extended warranty on his truck for his troubles. Hit the jump to view the videos showing the technician rummaging through Jason's things. Hat tip to FaLex!

But, of course, that doesn't mean that dealerships don't sometimes have shady people working in them and for them. That's why I said I was a little concerned for the guy who had the video.

I agree it's a great potential idea, but, unfortunately, a lot of states (unless you are in law-enforcement) won't let you tape-record or film someone without their consent. I don't know what the specific law is in LA....but this shows that there is sometimes a good case for taping or filming someone.
