Trinidad?I’m a half hour north of Arcata right off 101. I have pretty much zero mechanical ability. Like Kurt from Specter used to say to me “ there’s drivers and there’s mechanics. And you’re not a f-ng mechanic “
Thank you. I have decided to drive it back. I appreciate your input.Hey guys big picture here. He paid the dealer to fix it, 30 miles later same issue.
OP for the love of god just call the dealer. They will either pay for the tow or be responsible for damage done while driving it back.
The only reason I take my rig to the dealer besides resale paperwork is that if they f*** up they fix it free of charge.
Call them and tell then they didn’t fix the issue and sent it back. Either they redo it free of charge or tell you what is really wrong. End of story.
It’s my Chase checking. What would you say to them ?Time to call the credit card company in my opinion
Wait. They originally changed all the parts on the front axle to "make the repair". Now, they are telling you that after they made that repair, that wasn't the problem and now it is the transmission??? No, I would not buy it. 1st, request to speak with the service department manager. If that does not work, escalate to the dealership manager. If that does not work, contact the regional manager. This is not right and you should not eat this.
Second, and it is too late now, but as dallen341 stated, ALWAYS use a CC to pay. You can pay the CC weekly if you like to make sure there is no balance. They can pull back the money until this is resolved giving you an advantage in this situation. The CC has literally saved me thousands as a result. I hate having to do it but, there are some unscrupulous people, and companies, out there.
He did. He is near Arcata, CA.@earthsurfer I suggest you post your location to see if you can find someone in your area with 80 series knowledge and experience that can give you a valid assessment of the problem since the dealership seems clueless.
There’s not much I can do really. There’s no record anywhere on the service records of me saying that was the issue when I borough it in. What is written there is that “ customer says csnt shift from 2x to 4x” there’s no mention of it and now the service advisor is pretending I didn’t bring it up. He literally and unapologetically said “ maybe it won’t make that noise anymore “ I think they just don’t have a tech that can actually work on the issue so they have to get rid of me.
Dealer is giving it back to me saying it’s the transmission and they can’t help me.
