The battle continues.
Sure enough, I pick up the car. I love it, I really do... but the tint, as I figured needs some fixin'... so does the stripe.
I'm gonna call this car Project Second Chance .. or Project Do-over
Because there's more...
Not a day after i get my bling bling black wheels installed, I get an error in the car's message center... Tire Pressure Monitor Fault. Hmm..what could that be?
I do a little reading up, and it's most likely that they forgot to install the sensor straps inside the wheels when mounting the tires....
So I bring it in... everyone's nice enough, and I figure the fix will be simple either way... but oh no.. here's where everything falls apart. Please keep in mind that the sales department is a total separate entity from the service department...
Service department says the wheels don't come with sensors, and therefore there is no way to get rid of that warning (at least the car is doing what it should be doing!)..
So now I have to take it up with the sales lady... and it's going to be up to them to figure out who's paying for what, because I'm not settling for aftermarket wheels that toss error codes and having them rip me off more on the cost of the wheels.
I'm seriously starting to lose patience... I'm making way too many trips there, and I have a customer contract starting up soon meaning I can't just up and leave whenever i wish.
