Good Dealer Experience

It was near 100 degrees in Denver yesterday and the wife and I decided to go out to dinner. When I went to put up the top so the AC would would be effective I heard a loud "pop" and the clamshell froze. I immediately suspected the dreaded top transmission cable problem and ran it in to the dealership this morning. (I have the original cables still) They set me up with a free loaner car from Enterprise and two hours later I get the call, "Do you want the good news or bad news first?" The "bad news" was the job required no parts!" The good news was the clamshell pushrods and several components were loose. The dealer re-torqued all components and tested the top several times. All is normal. $110.00 total and a free rental. Not all these guys are "stealerships!" P.S. I still watch the top operation like a hawk!
