Purchased a C5 and the dealer replaced the rear shocks from Magnetic to standard. Now I have the service ride control message. I'd like to delete the F45 or F55. Is there anyone in my area.that I can pay to delete this?

Sorry. Not laughing at you. But what kind of decent dealer, if there are any, would replace the shocks knowing it would post a code, and send him out the door displaying the code? Stuff like this is why GM is where they are. Which is better than where they'll be in another year. Half their employees don't care, and the other half don't know how. I digress.....

Thanks everyone for the input. I decided to just replace the rear shocks.
