Car maintenance forgot to refill the coolant
I took my beloved 2013 Bayswater Cooper S in for maintenance today, it's near 51k miles. I did everything they asked to fix, including a leak in a coolant hose. After picking up my car, driving the 15 miles home, the engine overheats. I was nearly home, exited and immediately turned the car off. The coolant was completely empty, my guess is they forgot to refill it after replacing the hose. I just paid $1600 for maintenance and now may have damaged my engine.
Any thoughts on how I should approach this at the dealer? I already paid to have it towed back for the weekend. They offered me a loaner however lucikly I wont be needing it. I thought at least they should reimburse the tow? Take some off my maintenance? Have them replace the oil again? I'm obviously concerned at what damage this did to my Mini.
