I was coming back home, tooling down the freeway about 30 miles from my home, the tire icon on my instrument panel started flashing and a warning note "check system" appeared. Well I knew this meant that I had an electrical failure of the TPMS system. Drove home with that annoying light blinking and thinking I would have to take the car in for servicing the next day. Was about to take the car in for servicing the next day when it occurred to me to check the TMPS switch under the glove compartment. Sure enough it was in the secondary TMPS position. That car wash employee struck again. Anyone had a similar experience after having their car washed?

Complimentary car wash worth damage?
My Lexus dealership offers "free complimentary car washes" which I was at first excited about. The car wash area seems to have attitudes (probably not paid enough) and recently I noticed damage on my rear bumper consistant with another vehicle possibly rear ending it "slightly". There are a few indentations on left, middle and right side of bumper. I keep my car garaged, rarely take out and am very careful where I park. I have seen when they get busy the cars look bumper-to-bumper and now I am wondering if it could have happened at the thier car wash. Has anyone experienced any kind of damage from their "complimentary" dealership car wash and if so, how was it handled?
