Sammy,

Glad to hear you finally got this issue resolved, but I don't understand why they will only pick up 2/3 of the bill ?

Rizza quoted my $951 for a RMS repair at the end of May of this year.

So, are they charging you $317 for your 1/3 ?

Nick

The reason they won't pick up the full bill is because I made my claim after the warranty expired. They believe that when the oil leak was looked at in June that their dealer confirmed that nothing was leaking. I didn't notice/see the oil leak for another couple months so I would imagine that they think it is a new/different leak which I reported after the warranty expired. It just stinks that I didn't notice it until immediately following the expiration of the warranty.

Of course not, the cost quoted to me is $1160... I'm responsible for 1/3 of $1160 which ends up being $387.

If you have a formal quote than I would love to get my hands on it!

Thanks a lot NickCats! I forwarded the quote to the dealer to see what their response will be. I wonder if it has something to do with the age/engine difference in our vehicles? Not sure how or why, but it seems very weird that there would be a $200 price difference in less than 6 months from the same dealer?

I'll be sure to keep you updated as I know you and I aren't the only ones in the Chicago area trying to keep the dealers honest...
