Aww guys I think we were a little harsh on him. I don't think he is going to be back on the forums post ever again.

All i got to say i will not be going back there no more and for him to call me and tell me that, He can #$#$ OFF!
Just wanted to post this.

thanks for posting, I work in a customer service environment (AT&T) and as you would guess Mistakes happen and customers get upset, we do also have surveys that go out to base how we are doing (job/ pay effecting) If this was my store, I would also appreciate it if a customer had an issue after they left my store, to let us know and give us a chance to correct it, before giving negative feedback which greatly effects someones job. every one is entitled to their own opinion and you voiced yours which is absolutely OK but for the future think about it on their side as well, give them a chance to correct it before acting. just MY OPINION.

Though I think the OP over-reacted, I do feel that it is right to voice the quality of work preformed in the survey. It is true that people make mistakes, but the point of the survey is to get feedback about the quality or the worker. If the worker continually puts out poor quality, then the "powers that be" should know. The OP was lucky that it was an easy to see problem. Imagine if the worker had mis-threaded the oil nut. What if this was not just a mistake, but a repeated offense in quality. Thus the reason why it is good for the OP to be honest in the survey. If this worker continues to put out "mistakes" it should be noted, instead of covered up in reworks (which again hurts their bottom line).

Most of the time we get our steering wheel replace under warranty... because our cheap *** steering wheel bezel, the plastic part that covers the steering wheel buttons get scratched very easily. No they don't replace the bezel, they replace the whole steering wheel, and send it back to the warranty department.

What about the little metal thing on the shift ****... mine is scratched up so bad... will they replace the little metal piece.

do they just replace the whole steering wheel because of the scratches? I dont have scratches but the leather on the steering wheel looks like its wearing down a bit.. if that can be an issue

I think you " should of " let them fix it before writing the bad review.

BTW: It's "should have". Just saying. Just my 2 cents.

Putting on a steering wheel straight is simple. And there really is no excuse for a professional getting it off-center. Once you have changed a wheel once, you know how to do it right, and they should have testdriven the car to make sure of course. I understand the OP's disappointment about the situation, but keeping a good relationship with the dealer is profitable to the vehicle owner in the long term.

This issue would make me worry, "what else does that technician fail to do correctly?"
