Going under the wrench....

  

Muddydawg75 -> Going under the wrench.... (10/17/2007 5:15:35 PM)

The time has come again for a trip to the dealer.  NuCar already called tonight to confirm the rental (free) and the time.

Going in for the Check engine light
Axle seal
Power steering issue.  It seems you have to rev the motor a little for the power feel.  I thought it was the belt... and even felt it was better afterwards.... but it seems to be getting worse now.

I will post pics of the rental....[:D]

Oy Vey!  Thru the dealer or a rental car voucher?   The opitomy of the ricer!  Stick that in some puddles!  Quick.

Muddydawg75 -> RE: Going under the wrench.... (10/18/2007 1:59:35 PM)

Rental....  not through the dealer.... which I think is crap.... you buy a nice car... and it breaks... and they reward your business with a Kia?

Check engine light = Not warranty.  They said it was mud inflicted and not covered.  So much for the "We stand behind people that wheel their hummers"  They are replacing a vent solenoid something or other.  $73

Axle seal = Warranty

Squeeky door panels = they said they have never heard of anyone complaining about them.  I said fine.  I'll just do it myself.

Power steering/brake issue = "You need new brakes... your rotors are delaminating."  What a crock of ****.  I've been wrenching for over 20 years and I am insulted that they would tell me something like this.

Here is the best part....  they had to take off the tires to "Inspect" the brakes.... but when it was requested that the tires be rotated....  they said it would be $50.

Not impressed.... and I will be looking for a chat with the service manager soon.

that sucks bro...sorry to hear.

Doc Olds -> RE: Going under the wrench.... (10/19/2007 12:27:43 PM)

MuddyD;  what's the miles on the brakes???  Just curious.  Delaminating?  Thanks

Muddydawg75 -> RE: Going under the wrench.... (10/19/2007 1:15:13 PM)

They are not that old....  they have at least 40% of the pad left.... the rotors are just a little rusty/pitted from the mud.  The truck still stops on a dime and makes no noise....  it's no where near the wear indicators/rivits/etc.....  it's just bad business for them.... because I will not go back for anything now....  I just inspected the brakes two weeks ago when I changed all the fluids in the truck front to back.    My only mistake was not scanning the code myself.... had I known it wasn't under warranty I wouldn't have driven to DE to get it fixed.... the gas and tolls and the repair far exceeded what I would have paid to fix the seal myself....  you live and you learn and it will never happen again....

IHNEVELS -> RE: Going under the wrench.... (10/19/2007 1:39:51 PM)

I don't know how different dealers handle repair work but my dealer here in Baton Rouge La put me in a rental hummer since mine is under warranty. i also learned that they have agreements with enterprise that if your vehicle is a G.M. product that  is all they can put you in if they are paying for it. Maybe its the dealer here that has the stroke.
