Dozr was having all kinds of Issues with the other Dealer in town, same thing, wouldn’t fix a STOCK car. I think you need to start of by telling them you work for Consumer Reports before they take your car. LOL X… ---

> [@Jim1234664](#): > > is this temp sensor something on the manifold or did it have to be installed in the new intake? yeah, it is on the new intake pipe. the extent of installation included unscrewing two screws and pulling out the sensor; then putting the sensor in the new pipe and screwing it in. this was done approximately 18,000 miles ago, its been fine since then. even still, the fact that it isnt being covered under warranty is NOT my beef. its all of the trickery (whether intentional or not), the lack of communication, and shitty customer service is my problem. ---

never tell the dealer that you have aftermarket parts if the car is warrantied. ever. . put all the oem parts back on if youre going to take it in to be fixed under warranty. any dealership would have given you the same shpeal, possibly minus the wire harness wrapped around the shift linkage. they’ll say whatever they have to, to get you in the door ---

Yea he actually did come from there. He was there when I started, then after about a year just leaves to manage one of the culligan service depts, then after his replacement doesn’t work out, comes back and resumes his position like 4 months later. He could be real condescending to his employees and seemed to enjoy it. Lia’s service dept. has a very low ranking in customer satisfaction, at least couple years ago. > [@RedGoober4Life](#): > > Is he the one they got from Northtown Dodge? > > I’ve never had any problems with Don Davis Honda, nor have my parents.

I’m shocked you had a problem. 2 of the service writers are Chris and Jerry also both good guys. lol ---

I’ll stick by my original thought. I like Dave we worked together many years ago and we always got along. I will add that i have never worked for him, that may be the difference. I think Lia Honda just won some big award, caught the tail end of it on the news the other day ---
