I made the mistake of not checking my car on my last visit. Now I have a small ding in the body line of my driver side door that I'll have to cover (looks like he opened the door into the lift). Good news is they've done over 3k worth of repairs for free on my Camaro.

Take a cell phone pic of your odometer when you drop it off too.
Hot cars grow mileage when dropped off at stealerships for some reason...

My dealer does that with you to protect them too when you drop your car off. They note any problems or scratches etc. when they take the car so you can't say they did it. There are different dealers, I am sure glad that Macmulkin is my service dealer and they are the best around here.

I guess I am the lucky one of the group. My son is a Master tech at the dealership I bought my ZL1 at. The dealership was told the only person that touches the car is my son and that way I know its taken care of.

Reading this does not make me any happier that mine has been at the dealer for almost two weeks for a bad trunk seal, dead battery, cel, brake reservoir leak that at paint off brake booster and tires. 6 of those days were just waiting for them to change tires. And get this they hadnt even fixed the paint issue on booster in that time . They want to repaint it. Not happy about it at this point.. Any damage on mine will be the last straw

As a matter of course, when I park my cars amongst others, when I start walking away, I take a pic so I have the tags of the cars parked on either side.
At the dealers here, they do a walkaround WITH the customer when it's brought for service, and notate any and all damage, and both customer and service writer sign the RO. Smart policy for both parties - you guys get the same thing at your dealers? odometer? I have a Volt (no booing!) and load the onstar app on the iphone, and take a screen capture of the OnStar app showing the odometer with the date and time that it refreshed. |

At least they sold you one...
This is off the subject, but maybe you guys could help. I read the story about the guy in Delaware that had his car wrecked by a service writer. I had a similar but different experience with a dealer here in South Carolina. Had a 2007 Silverado, all set to trade on 2010 Camaro when they were new. The transmision had a leak in the truck, no prob still under waranty I thought, and thought wrong. Three atempts by the dealer to fix the trans, and it sat at another dealer waiting to go back to GM under substitution of colateral. The second dealer offered to trade the truck on another Silverado or a Cobalt. Yes a Cobalt and no I did not slap him. I asked what about the deal that was already in the works to trade on a Camaro. I was told Chevy only built about 1500 of them before they declared bankruptcy and none were available. Three days later I was told a "hold" had been put on the truck, second dealer claimed that never hapened before. Long story short I recieved a letter from a repo yard in Darlington saying the truck had been sold. After two years, three attorneys and the Sheriff's department paying the dealer a visit i recieved a forgiveness letter. Any ideas? I was current on the payments.

They just replaced the booster on mine from the same issue. Booster replaced as warranty issue. They will also have to repaint the area under the master as the brake fliud damage the paint under there as well. Service manager, said that will also be warranty because the paint damage resulted from the leaky master. And, my battery died while in sevice for two weeks. WTF??

Sorry to hear about your car.
![]() Why was your car at the dealership for 3 weeks straight? Did you say the battery died as well? They must not have been starting it/test driving it that much. Last edited by tones2SS; 01-17-2014 at 05:05 PM. Reason: added text |

At the 14 day mark, they asked me to take the car and return it later to finish the work. But, when I went to start it, it would not crank. battery test indicated dead cell in batt (12 month old). they kept the car, changed the battery and then the brake booster that week. The whole time, my car sat in the sun, cooking, and getting scratch by thier lovely mechanics and lot attendants. I am not happy that I still have to go back so that they can finish attempting to fix my car.
