1st trip to the dealership...we thinks it's the battery, we will hook it up and get it checked out.
Nope not the battery, don't know what it is. Keep and eye on it and let us know.
2nd trip, wow strange...we can't duplicate the problem. Sorry, it's just not tipping it's hand to us? WTF the "TRUCK" is not tipping it's had to you...is that dealership-ese for yeah yeah we can't find it so kindly pound sand?
3rd trip, ding ding ding, we have a winner, let the lovely lady choose a prize...A NEW RADIO.
WOW was a winner. Course we have to order it so it could be a few days.
My pessimism drained just knowing the daily routine of resetting the friggin' clock would soon be coming to an end...SO I THOUGHT.
4th trip...yeah that's right good ol' number 4. Drop of the truck for a radio install...check, call to pick up said truck...check, get in the frame of mind to reset all radio stations....check, wait a minute...new radio, all radio stations ALREADY programmed?
Call me skeptical but since when do you get a new radio installed in a vehicle and you don't have to reprogram all your stations. Adding to my disbelief, a layer of dust on dash with not one fingerprint in it, the cupholder still in the down position and the papers on the floor remain in a nice clean stack. This of course prompted my phone call back to the dealership...
"Hi Mona what can I help you with?"
"Tom, are you certain that a new radio was indeed installed in this truck?"
"Well I am billing for it right now."
"Not what I asked Tom, you see there is still dust in the knobs and all the radio stations are still in the radio."
"Oh well, that is what we do here, our installer is such a thorough man that he writes down all your stations and reprograms them exactly where you had them and sets your radio back up identical. See the radios can be so technical now that he will even record your satellite information and then set it right back up for you."
Ok...help me out here...does this sound like a load of crap or have a become so jaded by dishonesty and lack of trust that I refuse to believe that this was truly a stand up act of kindness and professionalism?
We'll see, I am hoping not to have a 5th trip, cause I love my Dodge, just not that craptastic radio.
