| I ordered a new malibu and got it Friday, 5/2/08. Didn't get home before it died on the road. Is there a three day right to resend on new cars? They have it at the shop for over 4 hours now and I haven't heard a thing from the dealership. My 3 days is up at 5:00pm today. Want do you all think I should do? | |

The dealership was excellent, they ordered a new computer and thought that would take care of the problem. They were bringing the car to me and had loaned me a new Malibu to drive in the mean time. My salesperson was driving the car to me and it started doing the same thing again to him. He called me and said he was not going to deliver the car to me because it was acting up again. I called the general manager and he said whatever I wanted to do, get my money back, find another car, just whatever I wanted. I told him I did not want that car and to find me another one or order me another one. Well GM went on strike so they can not order me one so they found one for me. It did not have the upgraded stereo like I wanted but it had everything else. Sutherland Chevrolet in Nicholasville, KY rocks. If you want a true blue friend, buy a car from them.

Replying to: wolfe4 (May 12, 2008 3:41 am) You got lucky I had the Trail Blazer that had the problem like you were saying and the problem continued four times and they changed a mess of things until a trouble shooter mechanic was called in and they found it to be a simple short in the stearing colum, proably because I had the SUV for six months they werent so eager to give me a new truck. Also I live in Jersey, that dealer would be a little far for me plus the oil changes alone would proably cost me $300.00 each time even with a cupon. Sounds like you have some good people down there.

Replying to: packer3 (May 12, 2008 6:16 am) I had the same thing happen to a KIA...the check engine light would never go out....3 weeks old, 150 miles on the car, in the shop 5 times.....I finally asked the general manager to get me a new one or give me my $$ back........and they did...simply had to redo the paperwork for DMV and they made the same finance deal work.....again....it was a month long ordeal, but the dealership stepped up and did the right thing......
