Seems that a few dealerships definately do not take customer service seriously. Seems like there truley is maybe one or 2 chevy dealerships in houston that are first class while the rest are hellholes. Picked mine up today unfortunately after dark and the service writers were all gone. Well i pulled it into brighter lights on the lot and there it was. A dime sized door ding on passenger door right on the crease. This is the second time for this b.s to happen at the same dealership.. Hopefully theres some sort of resolution as this is pretty much due to their carelessness.

Do not leave your car in dealer service bays if u can avoid it. My last 3 camaros have all been damaged to the point of needing paint repair while in dealer service bays for simple warranty work or oil changes.

This reminds me of my third gen 92 Camaro I had. When it was still under warranty I had a pinging noise in the engine. They had the car for about a week and that didnt fix it back and forth a couple times before it was fixed. So when they finally fixed it I went to pick up the car and the front bumper was scratched, the grill damaged and the spoiler ripped. They tried to tell me it was like that. I said no way. So they repainted the bumper and replaced the grill and spoiler. About two weeks later the painted pealed on the the spoiler and I realized they took parts from another Camaro on there lot and put it on mine. I was pissed and went back and made them by brand new parts and show them to me before they put them on.

It's sad we can't even trust the dealers we purchased our cars from - when I took my ZL1 in to the dealer for the first oil change, there were white marks on the front seats (both driver and passenger), evidently from paint or something the tech had on his pants. Took a while, but I managed to get it cleaned up. I'd gotten out of the habit of doing my own service on my vehicles, but I think it's time I started again. At least then I can trust that my vehicle is being treated properly...

inspections
My Camaro has been siting at my Chevy dealer since November 21st. Now they tell me my taillight is running by itself which is killing my car and I have the led taillights. When my car gets low battery voltage the lights go crazy. I'm even more furious because my baby is parked out in the cold and snow now.

Sounds like it's your dealer. You may have to go in there and start strapping ass. They are taking advantage of you. If they are costing you money, you need to turn the tables and cost them money and it will get repaired sooner. Are you calling them every day? You have to stay on top of them when they do that. My local dealer is like that. I drive 25 miles to the other dealership that is much larger and seems to be dialed in on repairs. I had a supercharger ordered and replaced under a weeks time. It will be worth it once you get your car returned. |
