Hi!

Okaaaayyy....I stand, corrected.

*DISCLAIMER: Getting a vehicle serviced under warranty for a recurring fault
may be difficult and consume a lot of your time before the problem is
resolved. Getting a vehicle replaced under lemon laws or similar statutes
will also take a lot of effort, persistence, and time. You may spend large
amounts of time without the service of your vehicle during the time when you
are trying to get it repaired or replaced. You may also have to spend lots
of your time writing, calling or otherwise contacting your vehicle's
manufacturer before action is taken. You may even have to take them to
court. The whole process of getting customer satisfaction is not easy and
should not be misconstrued as such.

There -- that should be complete! :-)

Now--I firmly believe that an individual should stand up for their consumer
rights, and I'm keenly aware that it is not easy, but I also know that it
can be rewarding when the situation is finally made right. Whenever I have a
problem with a product or service, I do go to the trouble to make my
complaints known...really never to extremes, but I do try all reasonable
channels with a business. If I don't get a resolution then I'm honest with
others who want to do business with that company and I take my own business
elsewhere.

Several problems are out there.  GM/Lemmon Law (they will use the lemon law
in your state) will prorate the truck, the great rebates that they are
offering to purchase a new one will reduce your trade in, and you will not
get much for your Lemon.
I have had tons of problems with my 2003 HD and have 24,000 miles on it.  I
went round and round with GM, and got no where, except they bought me a
100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty.  My wife even works for GM and it
did not help.  I talked to a lawyer, area service rep, and three Chevy
dealers, and nothing.  At the end of it all I had three options:
1.Repurchase---Gm would prorate my truck according to lemon law, I could not
use any rebates, incentives, discounts, or interest rates and I would still
owe $13K to GM for my truck
2. Replacement--GM would not even think of this.
3. Trade in--see first paragraph above.

BTW I had my truck just over a year.  I like the style of truck, but I want
this one gone out of my garage.

Good Luck,
Bruce

Its interesting how the more complicated the electronics in these new trucks
becomes the more incompitent the mechanics seem to become. I like to work on
my own truck but as I am now looking for a new one it scares me to look
under the hood and see all that new solid state ignition electronics. It is
almost to the point where you have to rely on the dealer now and as so often
stated in this newsgroup. The service sucks. So for the time being I am
going to stay with the older technologe that I can repair and that way I
have some control over reliability. Good luck with your truck and better yet
good luck trying to get a straight answer out of them if they do ever find
the problem, you can be sure that by the time they are done it won't be an
easy answer or a reasonably priced fix.
