Key is stuck in the ignition and my dealer is telling me, my vin isn't coming up for the recall, anyone fix this themselves? Hard? Expensive? The dealer wants to charge 83 bucks just to look at it (eat mah ****)

 

should be covered under your 3/36k warranty.

 

im at 39k miles lol

 

It should still be covered, I recieved a later in the mail concerning it after it happened to me.

There is a TSB for this, and it covers multiple years. Call another dealer and see what they say.

 

yea that totally bs dude they have to fix that cause you cant get it out unless its a auto bro and that a NO for you

 

I have an 09'. Just had mine replaced today free of charge. All i did was tell them it was sticking even though it wasnt saves me having to deal with it later . Im at 40,000km

They are scamming you bud.. There is no need for them to charge $83 to "look" at it when the problem has already been determined. There is a service bulletin out. Look it up, print it out and take it to another dealership..

 

well the car is going into the shop tmrw morning she said she has to look at it and make sure thats what it is and its possible that itll be replaced free of charge..

 

Im willing to bet it will be

 

Man some dealerships are a bunch of dicks...pisses me off....they could easily help you out with that....smdh

 

i hope so.. or im raising hell, if my car isnt supposed to get the recall, then why in the **** did it get stuck?

 

yeah, the normal price is like 400-600 i think lol

 

yeah they can eat ****, anyone attempt to do it themselves? she was saying something about them having to reprogram it after fixing it.. which im calling bullshit on, she only said that after i said id do it myself

 

She maybe right about the reprograming, but I'm sure you could find a shop with a tech2 that could reprogram it for you cheaper then the dealer.

 

ill check my bill in the morning and tell ya if it says anything about reprogramming

 

getting it done for free, OHHHHHH YEEEAAAAHHHH
