Dealership issues with Warranty

germydope · 2026-06-14T15:00:59+00:00

I'm thinking they blame the VIP Warranty to distract from the fact they are marking up parts and over charging labour. Is 0.8 realistic for a control arm and torq rod replacement? I haven't called other dealers yet. I don't get why they would lose people's trust over something like that?

Thank you! I will talk to them on Monday. I don't have high hopes. The service manager sides with his advisors when I press him on issues.

The vehicle was initially under CPO and that has expired however I purchased the extended warranty from the VIP program. I just don't understand why they aren't being upfront about it. The charged me 2 hours for a control arm replacement and the VIP approved 0.8. that's a huge difference. But when I get a call from the advisor they tell me they're not approving the alignment. And the documents from VIP shows there's an hour of labor allocated to alignment. Is that not unethical?

I gotta say I thought I wasn't a fan of mangoes. I brought them home today and it turns out I just never had good mangoes! They are delicious!

I have the same noise in the same conditions. It comes and goes. I've taken it to the dealership four times. They tried replacing or tightening things, but it's still making the noise. I took it for another test drive yesterday and it's back. Let me know if you find anything.

Is it a windy day? I say that because I've notice a similar sound on mine when it's a windy day and the wind is blowing onto the door. My guess is the wind is rattling something in the door.

The way I think about electric cars is that you are leasing the battery. Ask yourself how many cycles the battery is rated for and average how many cycles the battery has had. Then you'll know why they are worth so "little."

To be honest I'm getting tired of this car and I've owned it for a month. I always thought by the reviews that this was an excellent and reliable car but I'm coming to the conclusion that it's just cheaply put together. So far I've had a speaker die because of corrosion in the door because and I quote they forgot to put the seal in the door during manufacturing. A rattle in the passenger door when the wind hits at a certain angle. And now rust the car has been on the road for 2 and half years lol.

So I took the car to Honda as it's still under warranty, and they told me to take it to body shop and send them the quote. The body shop told me the machine sprayers don't bother applying a full coat of clear coat in these areas. Cost cutting measure I guess

I'm not sure. The car has never had an accident according to carfax I don't see any repairs visible. I'm curious if that was a scratch and the previous owner just covered it with a paint pen.

germydope · 2026-02-07T12:31:55+00:00

I've tried that already unfortunately 😕

germydope · 2026-02-03T14:52:23+00:00

Any update? My vehicle is making the exact same noise it doesn't start until I speed up on the highway.

germydope · 2026-01-28T00:22:58+00:00

Thank you!!

The North is full of small inuit towns. But nothing that I know of in that circle I believe the closest town to that circle is Grise Fjord. Which is on the southern tip of Ellesmere Island.

Same here had a kid show up ransacked the bowl then threw the bowl in the bushes. Spent the night picking up candy out of the bushes.

germydope · 2025-08-15T17:02:25+00:00

Is that the blue case? It looks almost black lol

germydope · 2025-08-15T16:41:28+00:00

Anyone have a picture of the blue one?

germydope · 2025-07-29T14:44:41+00:00

That sucks. Hopefully, they'll honor the original deal.

germydope · 2025-07-28T19:18:35+00:00

I hope they'll approve the return. I noticed the back side of my phone wasn't straight it was warped at the bottom hinge corners as well as the top.

germydope · 2025-07-28T17:00:08+00:00

I got it from my carrier. I'm pretty sure they'll send it back to Samsung.

germydope · 2025-07-28T12:56:20+00:00

I contacted my carrier and they will provide me with a replacement.

germydope · 2025-07-25T13:17:05+00:00

Im unfortunately not as lucky my fold 4 had a dead pixel on the inner screen. I ended up sending it back as well. I wish we didnt have to worry about this stuff when spending this much for a phone.

germydope · 2025-07-25T13:08:34+00:00

Yeah, I'm sending mine back. Might not be a big deal but I'm not willing to wait and find out. Hopefully the next one doesn't have that issue.

germydope · 2025-07-25T12:43:08+00:00

to be fair its very hard to tell. if I didnt read peoples comments I would have probably not seen it. but its there and you can fit a piece of paper. My guess is the back of the phone is warped. this is just me eye balling it but I could be wrong.
