Complain to DC, but you better have good documentation. A lot of times this
will work. One of the great things about being in Southern Calif is we have
lots and lots of dealers. But best of all we have two dealers that support
DTOA (Dodge Truck Owners Association) and they have mechanics that are
exceptional that would never do that. We tell it like it is and they tell
it like it is, no BS. As a matter of fact they help us in the install of
high performance parts, MOPAR or otherwise. So if you're in the
neighborhood........I know...we're a bit away from MN...anyway, good luck.

How do all of you deal with dealership/repair/service techs that think they
are right on things that are so obviously wrong?
Like for instance a dealership that tries to tell me that a certain
uninvolved part I added is causing an unrelated problem.
What is your normal way of handling things like that?

Anyone? There's always other dealerships, but what if you run out of
dealerships?

Just curious...
