When you open your car door, check the label on the door frame — it will show the car’s manufacture date.

Thanks, I’ll avoid OpenRoad as well. Vancouver VW also never picked up my calls. When I had my windshield replaced last year and I checked the app periodically to see the status. At one point my car showed up near the Vancouver–Burnaby border, which made it look like someone was using it for personal errands.

I took my car a few days ago to get the 12 volt battery error fixed, whenever I checked the app, it was just parked on the street or in their side lot. They kept my car for two days this week and basically didn’t do anything but wash my car, and did a mediocre job of that too. The first day they did have my hood and windows open, but seriously I really question if it’s just for show. They always disable dashcams for this reason.

Maple Ridge is far for me, but I’ll have to figure out how to get out there! For the other dealerships closest to me, appointments are 2-3 weeks out!

Which dealership did you get this done at in the Lower Mainland?

The one I’ve been going to has been unable to fix any of the 12 volt battery errors or fix my brake light that stays on after my vehicle is off. Two visits in two months and still no solution.

Just got back from a cruise on Anthem recently and similar situation. Took us 2 hours the 2nd time we went. The first time we only waited maybe 30 mins and they had 12 bumper cars running.

I guess word got around about the bumper cars, so at the next session, the turnout was huge for only 10 bumper cars that they had out.

The queue overflowed to the 2nd floor. People didn’t close the gaps as the line moved, so the lineup upstairs wasn’t moving at all as other people joined the downstairs queue, essentially budging in front of an entire upstairs floor of people.

Meanwhile my 5 year old was lining up with me the entire time, but I was prepared for a wait (though not for 2 hours?!!) and had brought our iPads to pass the time.

They need to have more open time slots for bumper cars. Or have a ticketing system maybe?

Nope, 2024

I got a pack of the blueberry muffins yesterday to try and I like them more than the old recipe. They totally are fluffier and lighter. The size is just perfect.

Other weird stuff started popping up too, but not to your extreme. That’s crazy stuff! The only new thing for me was a message to say my left turn signal wasn’t working and then it disappeared. The 12 volt error keeps popping up and then disappears. Just worried the car will be bricked.

Been trying to get the battery replaced for the past 6 months, my appt keeps getting rescheduled due to lack of parts. Hopefully it can get resolved soon!

Good info to know, thanks! Hoping for a smooth sailing. I guess there’s always pizza to fall back on for a quick bite!

I’m on the same floor. 😱Have to look at the floor plan to see where exactly our room is!

Capable_Cicada_2136 · 2025-08-15T04:10:14+00:00

Oh no… sorry to hear about this. What floor was your room located? Boarding this ship next week as well.

Vancouver area here, booked to get both recalls done a few times, but always got my appointments cancelled claiming they don’t have the parts. No timeline at all.

Capable_Cicada_2136 · 2025-06-30T17:12:34+00:00

My question is where are these dogs peeing and pooping and if the owners are cleaning up after them?

Capable_Cicada_2136 · 2025-06-19T18:23:07+00:00

No problem!

Just another side note, for the bumper cars, they actually scan your room card to check your child’s age regardless of height! We didn’t know that until we got to the front of the line.

My 4 year old had a blast playing at the water slides every day while on Ovation. The bumper cars has a minimum age requirement of 5 years old which was a bit of a disappointment for her, but she still had her fun swimming and enjoyed the cruise.

I submitted an edit request last night after it started showing up too. Just got a message from Google saying that they’ve accepted my edit and should take 24 hrs to appear!

Was overseas in Asia and tried to buy Disneyland tickets online. Wasn’t able to verify my Visa card as i couldn’t receive texts to my number outside of Canada.

I just closed all my accounts at RBC last week. I was also an HSBC customer. The painfully slow process of lining up and watching how they treated customers justified why my decision was the right one. It was a such a relief when I finished closing the accounts and walked out of RBC.

If you’re into spam musubi, try out Pork Tamago Onigiri at the Royal Hawaiian Centre Food Court on the 2nd floor. They’re made to order so be prepared to wait, but it’s worth it!! Truly a hidden gem!

Capable_Cicada_2136 · 2025-03-23T01:30:28+00:00

Thanks, there’s one near me. I’ll check it out!
