one last update...so the dealer wanted the $471 for the strut with labor...
also recommended that i get my rotors turned for $145(when new rotors are less money) then proceeded to tell me that the sway bar link is a little loose and should also be done for an additional $126. oh and they recommended an Induction service(?) at $123.88..really? they would take a nieve enough person to the bank and empty it out their checking account

i wont pay them a dime....they are lucky they got the $40 for looking at it. i can do the strut myself and slotted rotors and pads might be $200...and they arent warped that bad, just a little shudder slowing from high speeds. they are unreal

If the dealer said - "Bearings", think about replacing bearings. Just check it yourself and take a decision. The same - the rotors, and links. It is not necessary to believe your dealer, but easy to verify his words.
An opportunity to kill two birds with one bullet.

I can understand the stand you are taking about this. I hope everything will go smoothly as you perform these tasks on your own. I look forward to reading how things went.

I hope you have a great extended holiday weekend.

My Dealer sucks monkey balls too. Nice to see that GMCUSTSERV person "understands" as well, that ought to make you feel better. I know I sure did when I was told that they "understand" my frustration. Best O Luck!
