Keep in mind that 2-3 other Hendrick employees are registered members here.

You know the saying......

TELEPHONE, TELEGRAPH, TELEPACK LOL.

Well chris is an assclown anyway!! He is a worthless piece of shit, he is the reason i never went back to rick hendrick, hope he prints this and give it to gm. He cost them a few cars sales and many service appointments. He will scew you any chance he gets. He tried to void my warranty on my Z06 because they kept braking parts on it when they were working on it. I filed a complaint agaist him with gm.

Well, I am a little upset with the fact that Kelly even told Chris he thought it was a lifter (which would be covered under my powertrain warranty) and they didn't delve further. I am pleased with how polite Chris was with our "meeting" today, no matter how upset he may be. But personal feelings should not get in the way of someone doing their job. I'll leave it at that.

Text on the internet contains no emotion without the use of smilies, so he took everything I typed on here as attacks. Whatever.

When you receive the type of service I received from the service department you would be frustrated too. I have updated this thread with every dealing I have had with them, no more, no less. If expressing my dissatisfaction with the service and my frustration with the whole process makes them not WANT to work on my truck, then so be it.

Oh, bill would have been $4100. $3300 for labor to diagnose something they never could find. Weird......

I told you the valve spring compressor was going to be cheap compared to what the dealer may charge!

Glad to hear you actually got away from there with no cost. Daily driving a hot rod does have its disadvantages, though. I learned that lesson many years ago. Its damn hard to beat a daily driver that's unmodified and bone stock reliable. Fast hot rods are definitely for the weekend and after work hours enjoyment.

PapaBear · 07-14-2011, 04:55 PM

It's not a hot rod yet.

If it's a lifter, then it's time for some upgrades.

LXtasy · 07-14-2011, 04:56 PM

so if 3300 was labor what would the other 800 have been for?

chrisheltra · 07-14-2011, 05:23 PM

Damn that sucks!

PapaBear · 07-14-2011, 06:02 PM

800 for ECM and plugs and wires and shop supplies.

LXtasy · 07-14-2011, 06:28 PM

shop supplies...lol I always find that one funny. Sorry, carry on

chrisheltra · 07-14-2011, 06:30 PM

Shop supplies = finger condoms and hand lotion

PapaBear · 07-14-2011, 06:46 PM

Lol at chris.

This whole situation was messed up from the day I dropped the truck off. Service was......well.....you know.

chrisheltra · 07-14-2011, 06:50 PM

Id call GM direct and make a formal complaint. Then Id email them with a thorough chain of events with a link to this thread. After that Id probably file a complaint with the BBB and Chamber of Commerce.

I wonder if you can charge them a storage fee and have them pay for a portion of a months worth of payments and insurance too?

PapaBear · 07-14-2011, 07:10 PM

I don't want any trouble with GM. And I dont want anything to happen to him really, he did more than he says he should have because the truck is "modified.".

Whatever. I'll tear it apart myself if I can find someone who knows what the hell they're doing. Then I'll call him and tell him I was right, and send him a bill.

PapaBear · 07-14-2011, 07:12 PM

Does anybody else on here see where this thread was "not nice" towards them? I mean really? Sure you can sense my frustration in every post, but can you construe any of it as an attack on their business?

Matts94Z28 · 07-14-2011, 07:17 PM

Not at all.
