This morning's update.
Just got off the phone with the desk guy with price tag on hat!
I asked for an update. He started right in on me telling me he wants me to start using better oil because I got that "Economy" oil change at Wal~Mart. I told him that is their name for their lowest cost oil change which does Not include checking all other fluids....tires.....vacuum...etc.! This has no bearing on the quality of the oil used. The oil is API certified and they would have 100's of thousands of junk engines all across the country to pay for if they used non API certified oil. (how one could even by non certified oil is beyond me anyway!).
I again had to just shut him up on this economy oil change!.....:sport_box

So he still can't tell me what they will do to fix or when I can have my truck back.
He claims they are doing a diagnostic. I don't believe this for one min. because when they first rebuilt my engine last year......they didn't even tune it up. They claim they don't have that kind of equipment. More dbl. speak!
Now he tells me the boss has these other engines he needs to get at......even though I've had this appt. since mid June!
I told him I will call him later today and I would like him to tell me when I will have my truck back and working properly and not burning oil.
I'm getting the feeling they just shoved my truck on the side and don't want to deal with it because it will cost them money to replace the engine and not getting new jobs done at the same time.
They have known since last Aug. 2007 that it's burning oil and have just been making excuses to put me off. They could have been setting aside $100 per month all this time and had enough money to pay their guys to swap the engine.
...............SO!
I'm already formulating in my head.....a letter to the CA. B.A.R. ......if they don't follow through.
