Default Failed Inspection

My vette failed inspection today due to "Tilt wheel loose".

The guy had it in the upper most position and was jerking on it. It was moving about 1/16th-1/8th an inch at most.

In the locked position is doesn't move at all.

It was a dealership.

I would go back and ask to speak to the owner and if you get no satisfaction tell him he just lost a customer. Then try elsewhere. :mad
