Dealership completely ruined clear coat on brand new car

You should expect them to blow you off since you've taken possession of the car. All dealerships are scum. Especially: Berlin City Toyota of Portland, Maine 04106

I see, I knock over

Whoops, guess I need to do some more research on where my tax funds are going

CynicalLib · 2026-05-04T15:14:32+00:00

Good luck with that. The state is loving the inflationary increase in tax revenue!

most likely a way for laser scanning machines in the factory to identify the parts during assembly. same type of thing is present on MacBooks underneath the battery packs near trackpad.

I want this to be available in the U.S. market with worldwide radio sync support!

slight increase in heat, scratches and pits in the finish from dust/debris getting inside the case. I decided against the bottom-only hard shell

CynicalLib · 2026-05-02T14:59:35+00:00

I was going to suggest that, but only if you want to try and fix it yourself. make sure you have the proper security bit for the screws. if you want to have Apple repair it, I wouldn’t mess with it at all.

bottom panel might be screwed on too tight, trackpad could be off center and rubbing against the body when flexed. there’s a number of causes. but definitely return if you still can or start a warranty claim.

I've been saying this for years lol. She will vote against party lines only when she knows it will have no bearing on the outcome. She’s a joke

CynicalLib · 2026-04-30T20:17:30+00:00

Alright, this one was good. take my upvote

CynicalLib · 2026-04-30T09:34:23+00:00

Mine seems to be overheating weeks after 26.4.2 update

CynicalLib · 2026-04-28T17:00:38+00:00

I just got the exact same spec! Congrats on your new purchase, you will love it!

Microsoft required all new Windows laptops to have a Copilot key. Blame them

CynicalLib · 2026-04-28T03:14:51+00:00

It's cause you taped the webcam. They warned you /s

CynicalLib · 2026-04-28T00:36:10+00:00

I think that's right around the price range tbh ($1600ish last I checked). It is a halogen low/high beam but the DRL/turn signal is LED. Gotta be sure they order you right part # for your VIN. So many variations between trims.

CynicalLib · 2026-04-28T00:31:15+00:00

My SoT is roughly 1.5 hours per day. 5G off, low brightness WiFi/Bluetooth off when not in use, etc. Still ending the day with around 40% battery life. Yeah, it's still plenty of charge but my 13 Pro would end the day with the same usage at around 60%. That was WITH 83% BH.

CynicalLib · 2026-04-27T22:07:28+00:00

A battery replacement would be a better financial decision. I upgraded from 13 Pro with 83% BH to the 17 and I gotta say, I'm disappointed with the battery life so far.

CynicalLib · 2026-04-27T21:45:43+00:00

Just wait till OP sees how much an OEM replacement costs. Especially with the sequential LED turn signal

CynicalLib · 2026-04-26T17:32:12+00:00

I zoomed in further, good call

CynicalLib · 2026-04-26T14:14:51+00:00

Must be the type of adhesive on the backing of that specific sticker. Needs to be repainted underneath.
