It's too bad business works that way rather than doing the right thing in the first place. Especially on a safety concern like brakes!

Probably why they replaced it under warranty. Reduce their liability since it was documented twice while under warranty.

Got the master cylinder replaced and brakes bled. Big difference, now using all 4 wheels to stop! The shop sure did make a big deal out of the warranty expired. I had to remind them of the 3 times I complained and got the run around and the van is not even a year old.

Some call it whining, others call it taken care of busines! ;)

Mornin all, still in kc. Had a bunch of offers and one that cancelled as soon as dispatched on it yesterday. Joe called with an em to st Louis lastnight. Told him we would move that way this morning. Was late and we were having dinner. Really hate to do it, that's only 138 mi. From the house. Really thought we would get one from here. Suppose to head home first of next week. Dont know, decisions decisions !!!!!!!!!!!!! Could go a week early. Think maybe we will just get up get around at a leisurely pace and if nothing by then head that way. Maybe we will get one on the way. Any advice from the looney bin !!!!!!!

Yea I know, had to give ya a jab! *l* I almost fell out of the chair when I saw the "goodwill price". I left Baltimore at 0500 to beat the DC beltway traffic, and took them about 4 hrs after the opened at 8, so I just wanted to get out of there.

Gota be it.

Ken, please do me a favor if you have time. I went into "layover lounge / day trooper guide" and created a new topic "200 year anniversary of the War of 1812 and the Star Spangled Banner in Baltimore". I was lengthy about.

I can't find it. Don't think I hit discard instead of submit, but maybe. Did it from my phone.

Maybe you can see it somewhere with your extra powers! ;)

Thanks
