Default Shock Stuffers

Many thanks too all that gave me the advice about checking the shock stuffers in our new 2004 Vert.

The ride was harsh and I explained that to the Chevy dealer this morning.

Upon checking, they found that all 4 stuffers where still there!

What a difference the ride now is!

Thank again, you all helped me before and I am most grateful.

Tom

Its too bad that when the dealers prep the car for delivery, they can't follow simple instructions. Glad you got it solved.
