Your Subaru was in the dealership for 25-30 recalls?

Pretty dam close. When I traded it in 2 years later it had gone through 11 recall trips. Everything from seat belt retainer to differential. Nothing broke on it but the recalls were massive.

On topic I concur with most, this should go through insurance and you should talk to the dealer about a trade in.

I'm going to guess Renfrew Chrysler.

Maintenance included + rude service?

Sounds like the OP bought a BMW to me.

lol....good guess. Yup Dodge, but not Renfrew.

So my wife has talked to the manager of the dealership. Basically, a long story short, we've told them that we'd like to play "Let's Make a Deal", but that it has to be one smokin' deal for us to want to buy a vehicle through them again. They've said that we would come away happy with something, considering the circumstances. We'll see.

Take the smokin deal and have your servicing/warranty work done at another dealership.

Yeah Baby!! Suck it, losers!

I'm fully aware that my accuracy has more to do with the theory of blind chickens and random kernels than any scientific basis, but it still doesn't diminish the fact that I was right.

Quick, someone call my wife and tell her. Just not jhunt please. I don't want her ruined.
