Its just speakers. Hell my wifes car has a parasitic drain that will kill the battery within a week in cold weather.

It could be worse than scratchy speakers.

It’s the screen going on and off without reason, speakers, trans….it’s a lot more. I just don’t post about it.

Already looked into that a couple weeks ago. With new interest payments our payment would go from 450 to 800. No good.

One of the new tires had a slow leak. It got quicker and so I had my old LT fill it up as I was across town and it got back quick. Well the wife HAD to have HER car. So I put on the spare. Take the bad one to the place we got it, service protection plan, drop it off, and go swim. Get a call that the tire is not reusable. Two holes in the sidewalls. Okay then. So I have the plan, they are suppose to prorate the cost of one based off tread depth. Almost brand new. Ready for how much they are giving me off a new tire. 90 bucks. Only 90 bucks for a 250 buck tire. Like…what’s the point of having a plan? I’m a little pissed.

I talked to them. They upped it to 120. Still had to pay 130. But it had less than 10k miles on a new tire.

Had to take my wife to the air port this last weekend. Hadn’t drove the Tahoe in a while. Had to run some errands and noticed in stop and go traffic it felt like her abs was kicking on. Odd. Well then it did it again and realized it shuddered then the peddle went hard. Shit. Her vacuum pump is going out.

Well I was gonna replace it, post about on Facebook. Find out there is an extended warranty for her year on the damn pump.

Call up chevy dealer. Describe it, ask if there are any recalls. She had my vin pulled up off a phone number. Says nope. All good.

So I’m like what the heck. Maybe I just described it wrong. And shouldn’t have said recall. Call back up, get hung up on.

Okay….let’s just show up.

Go down there. Explain again, get to talk to another person. Explain again. Gonna have to bring it in to see the vin. Naw dude, you can pull it up….or here I have it. They open it up. Play dumb…ask another dude how to find these extended stuff. I finally was like here is the Chevy letter. Oh, can I have your vin again? Sure whatever. As I look at the screen the vin pulls up my name…imagine that. Well, did you buy it from us? No…it’s not your dealership. Ohhhh here it is.

Then they are like yeah sounds like a vacuum pump others describe. Like dude. How many have you not covered? This shouldn’t be that hard.

Apt for Friday at 8:15.

They don't like doing warranty work because GM doesn't reimburse them enough for it.

That doesn't make it right, but that's why they bitch and moan about it. Then they have the nerve to basically demand you give them 5 stars on their survey so corporate doesn't jerk their leash. :rolleyes:
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

I have only had 1 bad dealership experience. Chrysler. Fuck them.

All other ones I have worked with have been ok. Sure they cost a lot but have been willing to listen to me and work with me.
