I hate Car Dealerships!!! and something exciting about Lachlan!!

Well as the title says I hate car dealerships!!!

There is something wrong with the car as the seat won't go back an forth and the power windows won't go up and down and because the car is under warranty we need to take it back to the dealer.


We put it in this morning at 10am and DH had to have a day off work because they said they couldn't take the car in the afternoon as they said that would mean we wouldn't get it back in the same day.

Well were we pissed off.

DH rang at 1pm to find out how it was going and they said they hadn't "diagnosed" the problem yet....which is code for we haven't looked at it. Then DH calls again at 3pm, the receptionist said that they have only started looking at it so they don't know what is wrong with it. God DH was fuming. He tried to remain calm and told the receptionist once they have figured out the problem to give him a ring.

While DH was out the receptionist rang him and told him that there is a electrics problem with the car, which we already knew and DH asked her to explain and she said that the mechanics found that there was a problem with the main fuse and that was why things were not working. DH also asked how long that would take to fix and she said that they needed to order a part in and that would mean the car would need to stay in over night.

Well I am pissed as I need the car tomorrow....and Lachlan's pram and car seat are in it!!!!!

Well the receptionist also told us that the car wasn't covered by warranty any more...and that got DH even more pissed off as we know the car is covered until next year by warranty, but the girl says that it isn't because the car is a 2006 model, well there she is incorrect. The car is a 2007 model...and we have proof!

Well they told us that the car would be ready tomorrow some time....and if it isn't they are going to get a major bitch slapping from me.

Anyway Vent over.

On another note we put Lachlan down in his cot awake tonight and he went to sleep by himself!!!! I was so worried that Lachlan was excelling in everything but couldn't put himself to sleep, but this proves to me that he can do it, whether he will be able to do it again is another story.
