Re: Finally took her in for prepump/cooling 240-260 1985

ICQ>

I dropped off my car on 8.6.98 at the "Volvo Car Clinic"

It is now 8.14.98, and I still don't thave my car.

Some transcripts from my conversations via. telephone with the owner of the garage;

Me: "Hi, Don. I was wondering if you've had a chance to look at my Volvo."

Don: "Well, Ted, not actually. Call back in 1 hr."

(2 hrs. later)

Me: "Hi, Don, etc. etc.."

Don: "Sorry, Ted. The guy who was working on your car is on lunch, can you call back in another hr?"

(next day)

Repeat above for 4 days.

Me: "Hi Don, etc.. etc.."

Don: "Ted, we found out that your pre-pump is defective, it's not working"

Me: "O.K., please replace for $140, as you said. I will get a refund from IPD on the replacement."

Don: "O.K., we should have it tomorrow for you."

(2 days later)

Me: "Hi, Don, etc.. etc.."

Don: "Well, Ted, we found out that the pump was merely disconnected at the ground wire, we can save you some $$, and have it ready tomorrow."

Me: "O.K., how about Friday morning?"

Don: "How about Friday afternoon?"

Me: "How about Saturday morning, then?"

Don: "How about Saturday (which is tomorrow) afternoon?"

I just received a message from Don. He said he has new news. I am assuming the pre-pump either is not working now, or IS working, but still making the "can-o'-bees" noise.

I will go to the shop tomorrow morinig, and if the car is NOT ready, I will put the pump back in, myself, with my own tools, and take my baby home! (And send HIM a bill!) Before I go REALLY nuts.

Ted (Bundy) Y.
