Really upset
Hey all FNG here as of a couple of weeks ago, only second post. Back in march I picked up a 2014 2LT with other options. After two months of ownership a nitwit here in Houston decided to pass me illegally on the left and hit my drivers door mirror. Am using Classic Chev in Houston and repairs have been made to the mirror. It looked like the door may have been knocked a little out of align. After three trips back to them they still can't get it right. My question is for those that live in Houston what dealerships have you been using that you are happy with. Waited many years to get a Corvette and I am just sick that I am having to fight this kind of battle to get my baby back in shape.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

If it is Houston, TX, you might want to post this in the regional section that deals with Texas.

There are two Classic Chev in the area, Houston and Sugarland. CCoH tried snagging my sill plates (had to get MacMulkin to intervene), charged $500 for a courtesy delivery, and had us sitting in the showroom for almost an hour before telling us, "oh yea, your car has been ready for a while".

Thanks All. Some good news maybe as the owner of the dealership called and has agreed to take care of everything. He couldn't explain why it all wasn't fixed right the first time but says it will be this time. Seems like a real stand up guy, so guess time will tell.

Take it to Richey Collision, Karen will fight for you and Chris will make sure it's right. Don't hold me to it,but I think it's a law in Texas that they have to get it done correctly or you can take it somewhere else and they would have to pay to correct there f'up. Karen is WELL verse in all, good luck and tell them Flash sent you. L8R ZFLASH
