On Sunday March 17th, at approx. 4:45pm I was collecting groceries in the Click List Parking Bay Number 1 at The Kroger at 24 mile and Dequindre in Shelby Township.
After my groceries were loaded by, Hannah, and my trunk closed I watch through the rear view camera your employees walk over to the next customer waiting in Bay 4. No vehicle was on the left hand parking spot, next to my Dodge Durango. As I slowly backed up with my daughter in the passenger side of the car, I back up and turned my wheel anti clock wise to face North to exit the parking lot. As I turned my Driver's side wheel panel clipped the Click list post that was posited at the left hand back side of the parking spot. I missed my review mirror and bumped my wheel arch, door panel and hood!
As you can imagine I was very frustrated. I wound down the window and shouted to you employees, "that I guess I am not the first person to hit that post, " and they nodded! The lady in Bay 4 remarked, "that post should totally not be there. I would have done the same!"
So the reason why I am complaining is because I feel the position of this Pole and Click List Signage is a problem. There is no curb around this post and when you back out of the space it is in your blind spot. I am not the first or the last person that will hit this pole. You can tell because the pictures below are from Google maps taken in Sept 2018, and you can totally see the black paint of someone's car before mine hit it this March.
This was the most expensive grocery shop of my life. I had just less than $200 in groceries and now I have $1500 in damages. I was going to use my insurance. However, seeing as though I have no claims on my insurance for over 18 years, since we moved to the USA. I did not want my premiums to go up.
So in closing I would like someone to review this issue and come back to me with a resolution, so no one else has to go through, what I have too. I would also like some compensation for the time, energy and money I have put into fixing my vehicle because of a position of a post that shouldn't be there.
