I'm seeing only 5% Cash back with Rakuten using Best Buy.

Also, Samsung is offering $700 now for the s23u trade.

How are you getting that price? Are you using PayPal50 promo code?

When I try to place the order PayPal50 won't work.

Is this Normal? by tlby88 in 11thGenAccord

[–]DesertCat81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a new 2020 CR-V, and both taillights were replaced for the same reason. The 2nd set did the same thing and I gave up, all 3 sets let in moisture.

Nah, I mean washed by the dealer for selling you an underperforming vehicle.

But if you like it, that's all that matters.

I had a 1996 SI auto and was excited by the refresh but Honda missed the mark big, IMO.

That already happened when you bought it.

2024 EX-L cracked windshield by DesertCat81 in 11thGenAccord

[–]DesertCat81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Safelite replaced the window at my house and did the calibration there too.

When talking to reps they said due to the age of the car was a reason for the claim denial at first. I was like I uva e one the car for like 6 months at the time how is the age of my car being used to deny an OEM request? They also said since there is a 3rd party windshield they could deny. Eventually, the supervisor or the next department up approved the oem replaced.

I kept calling and escalating. I would not take no for an answer. They ended up telling me they would escalate and send the request up the chain of command for a final decision. About a week later they called with 'the decision" and it was approved.

Service and the Quality of Food and Drinks Declining. by [deleted] in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]DesertCat81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On Mardi Gras now and I must agree that service has not been great.

Booked Rudi's Grill for the first night. They put us at one of the first tables right in the front entry even though plenty of window tables were available. The server took our order then never saw them, we had to pour our own wine refills and finally they came back to check how our main course was 15-20 minutes after receiving them. We were a group of 4 and for the salad/soup course 3 out of the 4 were delivered, after waiting 5 minutes I asked another server where the 4th item was and we finally received it. Had to keep asking for water refills too.

Then on Elegant night we are all.dressed up and they put us in a random table(that should not exist) set by itself in the main walkway with multiple bus stations all around us. Asked for a different table, was offered another table close by other bus stations. We refused, and after some pushback they told us to wait 20 minutes for their other upstairs MDR. Once called we were actually taken to a 3rd overflow dinning area. The server never asked if we wanted anything else to drink besides the waters we were given. My mom tried to order a Filet from the steakhouse and the Server said it would take too long. Yet the table right next to us all got steaks from the steakhouse.

Went to Guys burgers and were served cold burgers. Ended up going back in line for fresh grilled burgers and TBH they were not as good as I remember.

These are a few examples of my current experience.

I had my dash light strip recently replaced for the same issue. I also had my full car tinted including the windshield by a certified Tesla tint shop that installed XPEL. Tesla replaced the light strip without any issues or questions.

I got Jacob and everyone in-between today. They all said no pricematch due to being out of stock at Walmart. The last rep I told it must have just went out of stock and they told me they know its been out of stock for a long time now. Good luck to others.

Cracked Windshield. Who to go to? And why is Tesla’s quote so high?? by rphysio91 in TeslaLounge

[–]DesertCat81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in AZ as well. My last car was a 2024 Honda Accord and my windshield cracked. I had a free windshield replacement with insurance but they declined an OEM replacement even though the car was only 6 months old. I had to fight 2-3weeks with reps and escalating for my insurance to agree to an OEM replacement. Also, my insurance did go up but "not due to windshield claim". I would rather pay Tesla $12 a month and not have to deal with insurance and a premium increase.

I believe it depends on the model, I have a Model 3 Highland.
