hey go easy on the OP. As he said in his post...the GM letter to his dealer said they were supposed to contact the customers and let them know of the change in purchase price due to the new feature. I would assume that to mean contact the customer BEFORE they arrive to pick the car up.

$400 on a $36,000 car isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things. But the principle of the matter is still there. If you bought the car, and had an arranged price 2+ months ago, then show up and find they are adding on another $[insert amount here] for a feature that didn't exist when you ordered the car, and can't be removed if you don't want it...then yeah...that qualifies for at least griping and trying to get the added $$ removed.

It's not the guy who ordered the cars fault for not stalking online forums to know about this sort of thing. The least GM (dealer) owes the customer in a deal where the price is going to change is a "heads up" call. Ain't that hard.

Just sayin'.
