Default Let's ban together!

Are you tired of getting slapped and punched (not literally guys) by service departments, sale people and tuners. Granted there are many of us who have few complaints (myself included) but there are also a few that have MANY complaints. I have not had a bad experience YET with any of the car dealers from which I have purchased a car. The only place I had MAJOR problems with was a tuner shop, peter farrell supercars (pfs -and yeah, I meant to have it lower case ). I took my car to him for some modifications and two days later the engine died, he also TRIED to sell me some USED parts at the NEW price. Long story short, I was out more than $4,000 by the end of the story. The story does not have an entirely bad ending. I did get to testify against the scumbag himself (see as it turned out I was one of many he has done this to) and he LOST.
Anyway, this is what I am proposing:

If...
An S2000 OWNER has a major problem with the dealer or service department. For example, not fixing something that IS or SHOULD be covered under the warranty, or trying to charge the owner WAY too much for a repair.

Then

Okay that was funny..I even chuckled out loud on that one...

But, I do hope readers understand the difference between LIFE and getting fair treatment from car dealers and tuners.


Good point though

Okie dokie folks....

Well lets go through the entire post and pick it to shreads....

Yes, it should read band together. Or heck how about let's get it together...

If I knew it was going to be a picking session I would have read it over more carefully....

It's a decent idea for those who can't deal with them on their own. Me? I threw a fit and got an s2000 loaner car last time i had a problem. now I do all repairs on my own. Walked into that dealership 1yr later to pick up a part and EVERYONE there remembered my first name

Anyway smart a$$es can we PLEASE get back to the purpose of the post. I am beginning to think that you guys don't like me

Yeah, I am sure that would work What did they do to your car?

I am speaking on large issues such a tranny problems or engine failures that the dealer says suck up and pay. Again, I am not sure if this is common or not, I just thought we might have a response to it just in case, but if you guys don't think so....
