Need to vent a little here. I've got a 2012 Chevy Cruze with around 8500 miles on it been a great car so far. I needed to get the tires rotated, but the price of a rotation and an oil change was cheaper that just a rotation. Normally I change my own oil but I said what the heck. I also wanted to have the AC looked at because it wasn't cooling well at idle. Had the service writer write me up for AC check and oil change with tire rotation, nothing else.
When I picked it up about three hours later, the service writer cheerfully informed me that everything was fixed and they also did the engine fire recall for me. I didn't ask for it,and was running late and wanted to get the car home.
When I got home I popped the hood, and discovered that the recall involved cutting the protective areo plastic from under the engine and tranny. Now the WHOLE underside of the engine compartment from the radiator all the way to the firewall, and side to side to both frame rails is wide open!! The oil pan and turbo are wide open, as well as the whole engine bay to stones, debris, road salt etc.
Does anybody know if this recall is mandatory or voluntary?? Can I make the dealership put the original style pan back under there?? It is a very botched job. They basically took a chop saw and went at it.
Any comments/suggestions/advice????
