Argggh! Dealer has to keep truck overnight!

[Archive]

Those @#$&-ing rats! Drop off the truck this morning at 7:00 am for a new steering box after complaining of a slight pull to the right... . I think they are just making warranty money. They hadn't looked at it yet at noon. Now I CALL THEM and they say it won't be done today - have to keep it over-night! #ad

I got them to give me a "good-will" rental, but I don't wan't a damn rental! I'm pissed.

While I was there I thought I'd have them throw on the transmission line (off a '95) for the in-line factory sensor location and they spent more time analyzing why it wouldn't work..... where ya gonna get the power from? We don't think the computer will recognize it... Duh! Did you idiots see the two dual guages mounted on the Apillar?! #ad


Thanks for letting me vent... I'll go pick up my econo-box piece of $@#% rental now.

What really sucks is that I had a bad feeling about it this morning. Especially when I saw some little punk-ass gang banger, knit-cap wearing (it 100 degrees outside) dufus lot monkey stall the car in front of me 3 times as he was trying to move it 50 feet. I should have listened to my instincts!

Don't be so upset. Bought a Prowler last november. It has been at the dealers for three weeks trying to discover why it drains the battery in two days.

5 Sta my butt!! If they are allowed to sell a car like that, they damn better be sure to have a prowler tech available. Should hopefully be done this week.

Better buy a lottery ticket instead. I think the odds of having a 100% fix on the car are worse.

Wade,

I know, I know. In the big scheme of life it's a not a big deal.

BTW, your name sounds familiar... . did you ever live in Arizona?

Scooby, I know the feeling. I TOLD my dealer that I needed a new throttle cable. "bring it in on wednesday" he said. Wednesday at 4:30 I called to see if my truck was done and he said he had to order the new cable. He didn't have one in stock. That pi**ed me off big time.

hey wade-- did you have your dealer check the dehumidifier switch on your trailer refrigerator? A friend had the same problem and someone turned the switch on and it drained the battery at no time at all----- they turned it off and wa-la no more dead battery---

Scooby,

Never lived in Arizona. California then Oregon.

Dabbuba,
Tom was right, I was talking about the car. Got it for the fair this wekend and they told me it was not fixed, they didn't know how to fix it, STAR at DC had no idea, but they thought it was a bad battery. I sure that the Interstate battery they put in for me would be a lot better than the two Optima Red tops it has alreay burned up.
