my dealer rules!!!

once again they come through, my problem was my MAF sensor, they could have easily not covered it, but they did, as a matter of fact they are overnighting it so I can have it put on time for the dyno/tune tommorro, they want to see me get some good numbers on this tune they even changed out the original tranny fluid without me even requesting it(at no charge) I'll reiterate this once again...GM canada was on the money when they say this is their best dealership/service center in western canada...kudos to Barnes Wheaton Pontiac

they are awsome ****** awsome, the gang at the dealer ship says they are very aggressive sounding, Jim the tech has a g5 and he bugged me to take it for a spin, and he loved the car, they said, A underhood blanket might dampen the sound

this dealership wants to get into some (personal touch) mods to bring some income, cause they recently laid off a few techs due to declining warrenty claims

Barnes Wheaton Sucks!!!!!

When i had my sunfire, my clutch was sticking so i took to to them to check it out, they had it all day, when i picked it up they said they had done all kinds of tests on it and a part was shot, they had to order the part and it would be in in a few days, would be about 600 bucks. I took the car home and gave it a wash, when i cleaned out the inside I moved the car mat. Lo & behold when i drove the car...no clutch problems...the pedal was just sticking on the mat...needless to say i was pissed!

I had nothing but good experiences with GM dealerships. My dad has a toyota, and they are tight asses on everything, so guess what his next truck os going to be, a GM baby. He is getting the new model silverado in a few months

First, it sticking probably made it slip which caused a part failure. Second, how dumb do you have to be to not notice that? You are a turd.

Thank you for that...Idiot! We are not all as perfect as you!!!

Once i moved the floor mat it worked perfectly, no part failure!!!! And if I am a turd for not noticing it right away and taking it to a GM shop and they didn't figure it out what does that make them!!!!
