Subject: Recall for Headlights going out-Something extra! by teebee on 2015/2/6 5:08:17 Follow up to having the recall repair done at the Chebby dealership. Got the car back today. Work was done OK, I guess as it wasn't exhibiting the problem anyway. Looking at the engine bay it was left pretty much the way it was before. The only problem there was, is when I pulled into the parking lot at the dealership, we could see the car sitting there. As we drove past it I could see the car was plastered with bird crap. I had asked them if they could clean it off. They looked at me funny and said "Bird crap?" "Yes, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't that way when I dropped it off." Immediately they sent a guy out to clean it off. This young man came out with, what looked to be a shop rag and a can of Stoners glass cleaner. He cleaned what bird crap off the windshield and then started to rub off a spot on the top (painted). The bird crap was dried and white and it didn't just wipe off and he started to "scrub" on the spot. "Wooow. STOP! I would prefer that you not use that dry shop towel on the paint." He responds, "It's not dry." "Yea, well I don't want you wiping it like that. Don't you have something else ? ......Nevermind, I'll take care of it when I get home." He says "Are you sure?", "Yes, I don't want you touching my car." So I get in my car to and I start to leave and decide to go into the service writer and say to them "Is that the way you clean cars? Surely you have some other way to care for it. He was trying to rub the bird crap off my car with a basically dry shop towel." The service manager says "He was doing it with a dry rag?" "Well, he did have a can of Stoners glass cleaner, but I didn't want that sprayed on the paint either." He gets on the intercom and starts calling people up front...I said I don't want that same guy..." About that time another guy comes in and the service manager tells him, "Take Mr. Bachman's Corvette back and give it a wash job." Twenty minutes later I have the clean Corvette back and I am on my way. I stick my head in and tell the service manager "Thank you." Just a bit miffed about the way it was initially handled. |
