gm,s "investigation"concluded that it was neither the dealerships or gms fault. (the lady from gm was like talking to a complete robot by the way) After the phone call from gm i called the dealership and asked to speak to the number one in charge and raised complete hell...He called back assuring me he would fix my interior and insisted the car came from the dealer that way(bullshit) He was supposed to call me back thursday, well suprise he didnt and didnt return my phone calls. Im not really worried about it, their going to fix it, im just going to keep getting more and more pissed so. But either was this is a bunch of bullshit and its gotten all so old at this point...ill let ya know what happens. Its ashame im going to be putting 500 horse to the wheels before they get my damn interior fixed....o well........

I really can't stand people like you LOL. Of all the things to bitch about in this life (bad wife, bad back, bad job, etc etc)...you're stuck on a ******* interior piece? Granted, I can see why you'd be agitated....but c'mon man, look the car over before you drive it off the lot. If it doesn't look good enough to meet your needs, tell them to fix it and then you'll be back to buy it.

I just don't see anybody riding around in your badass uber fast C6Z06 saying "damn wtf is with these door panels?" hahaha.

Lol!
I wouldn't worry to much about what this guy has to say. He is used to cracked door panels on his f-body, so a discoloration on a panel is no big deal to him.

typical stealership. There is no excuse for what they are doing. Go there in front of customers and bitch. The dealership hates bad publicity. Too bad that you even have to go that far for a doorpanel.

If you just spent over $50k for a brand new car and the dealer will not fix your door panel for discoloration you would be pissed to. Just put yourself in his shoes.

btw I don't think your car is a POS, never said it was. I had a 99 30th anniversary Ws6, my door panels were craked a little. Would love to have a 02 SOM WS6 in my garage.

Buddy dont worry, you are right and you should expect good service especially if you have been a good customer. I have had 5 corvettes but never bought one under warranty. The Corvette has some quality control issues at times but I overlook them because I like the car so much. The dealers do suck and I would bitch up a storm and get my car fixed OR replaced. Check to see if they dont fix it then replace it. I hope you stay a vette owner and try not to let a shitty dealer sway you away. later, ed ramos.
