GM said they will call in a couple of days with an update on the part so still nothing.
I have a question, my NY state inspection is up this month. Now, here in NY cars are less than 2 model years old I only need to do safety inspection no emissions. Do you think I can go and get this done pass the safety inspection cause I'm at risk of getting ticketed for an expired inspection. Thanks

Hi,

I'm in PA and a safety inspection wouldn't involve what you are dealing with. The check engine light would fail it for emissions, but that's it. We do have to test drive the vehicle. If it is stalling and can put the driver in danger, I fail them but other than that, as long as everything is within the state's requirements, it would pass.

Let me know how you make out.

So, GM called me yesterday saying my part was delivered to the dealer on Friday. I called the dealer service this morning and the rep said he will call me back three hours later, nothing. I called again and got a different reply saying my rep stepped out have him call me no one has returned my call. I keep calling it's getting nowhere will try tomorrow.

Hi,

That's the type of service that makes you want to deal with them again in the future. LOL.

It's good news that it was delivered. Let me know if they call you.

Hi,

I'm glad to hear they have it. As far as time goes, if it is the pump in the fuel tank, the flat rate is 4.6 hours. You may want to find something to do. Once you add in a lunch break, you will likely be there all day.

Regardless, let me know how things turn out for you.

Take care,

Joe

Car is not ready, they have had it since Friday saying they had mechanics out sick. Hopefully, Tuesday. So, like I asked when is my car going to be a priority so if mechanics continue calling out sick I will never get car back. This is crazy.

Hi,

I completely understand your frustrations. However, I don't know what is happening there. Maybe someone is truly sick, or they don't have the help needed. I know it is nearly impossible to get good help right now. No one wants to work. I'm nearly losing my mind with help. If you get someone, they usually can't tie their own shoes. LOL

Hang in there. I will keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Let me know.

Anthony, I'm glad to hear that. Actually, that is the best news I heard all day. LOL

I'm really happy to know it has been taken care of. Now, at least you can enjoy it.

You take good care of yourself. Also, please feel free to come back anytime in the future if you have questions or need help. You certainly are always welcome here.
