Get Marty: Couple's Car Fixed After Getting Locked In Bankrupt Auto Shop

WEST VIEW (KDKA) -- A West View couple finally has their car back after reaching out to Get Marty.

"It was horrible. It was a nightmare," says Helen Frazier.

The Frazier's car was damaged in a minor fender bender.

Truth is, the repairs were expected to take a few days, but then West View Auto Body went belly up and the Fraziers couldn't get their car back.

It was locked inside the business.

"It was horrible. It was awful," says Helen.

The Get Marty team got the new owners of the business to open up. We got Shults Ford to tow the car to their dealership, and the owner of Shults Ford agreed to repair the Frazier's car for free.

"I hate it when people get ripped off. We cannot allow this to happen. I'll take care of it," says Richard Bazzy.

The Fraziers picked up their Kia Sorento on Thursday after Shults Ford finished all of the repairs. And now, the car looks brand new.
