replacing a muffler, replacing 2 vacuum hoses, replacing turn signal cover, and fixing a minor electrical problem in a 97 formula.....how long would you guys expect this **** to take??? or how long do you think it would take a dealer to take?

Z28SORR

I would think less than two hours labor. The dealer will have the car all day.

believe this or not, this is taking over 8 days. they scheduled us an appointment, and its taking this long. good thing this is under warranty or i would be ****ed.

Spinner

Which is the exact reason it's taking so long. It's warranty work, which is next to no return for the dealer.

i guess your right, which is pissing me off, cause i need this car for the weekend, and i won't have it, ibought me and my gf 124 dollars worth of tickets to see the baltimore orioles game tomorrow night, which obviously ill have to find a way to get there now.

Dealers....SUCK!!! They always try to rip you off....
They charged me $260 bucks to change my back rotors and brake pads.....It was still under warranty thats why my wife insisted I bring it in to them intead of changing it myself.......They told me it was new rotors.....BUT, HELL NO! It wasn't no @#$%ing new rotors.....It was just old rotors that was spun....Mother@#$%er was all rusted andS]-[it.....BASTARDS!!!

blind527

holy **** that sucks, well this is carmax, if something happens to it again they will replace it, again. but this is still pissing me off like woah. how could they charge you for something thats under warranty?

DZNUTTS

No ****....Those mother@#$%ers......Oh yeah, my car died once on the side of the highway....So I got a tow truck to bring it over to the dealers....They said they had to change my whole fuel system.....Mother@#$%ers only chnged the fuel filter.....Cause I went and looked at it....And it still had the old injectors(dirty) and the fuel lines to the fuel filter wasn't running through the normal location.....Its missing the screw to hold the lines in place...You can look at my car from the side and see my filter hanging...Now I just try to fix it myself...@#$% them!!!!!

blind527

well i got a call from carmax today, and guess what!!!!!! they said that they found something wrong with the transmission, and that they need to keep it until the end of the week, which pisses me off even more, they have had it for almost 2 weeks already..

DZNUTTS

DAMN! 3 weeks.....She BETTER be in top shape, When you get it back...

I'll estimate long since we are talking about professionals

Muffler - 30 minutes

2 vacuum hoses - 15 minutes

Turn signal cover - Front 15 minutes, rear 2 minutes

"Minor" electrical problem - 2 minutes to 2 months

Electrical issues can be a bugger to nail down

I was thinking the same thing
