Talking SS in Arizona

I have only seen (1) SS in Arizona with windows, never saw a panel in person till I bought mine, they must all be in the eastern United States ?? Were all alone out here.

#1 piston melted a hole in the edge, GM said they would help, but when the dealer looked at it, he said it had a NON Standard ECU code, and said because of that, They would do nothing to help me, it WAS 6 months out of warranty date, but only 60K miles.......I called the dealer whom sold it to me, they told me tuff cookies.......but 1 had nothing to do with the other but gives everybody a way out, and leaves me holding the bag of poop in the end....stay tuned..

Got my SS back today, NEW motor all installed, ECU back to GM Spec.....but I am long from finished with this.....more to come....on follow up...By The WAY...GM was NOT in any way shape or form, ANY HELP AT ALL....all they were looking for was a way out and couldn't give a poop less about helping me....so far EVERYBODY was looking for a way NOT to help a loyal GM owner, with NO less than 12 GM cars in my stable.....

BUT I can't say enough good stuff about Rose Automotive in Hamilton, Ohio a FORMER Chevrolet dealer.....Screwed out of the Chev dealership during the obumer take over when they downsized their dealer network.....Jim at Rose bent over backwards to help me, and get this HHR back on the road........
