Hey all I just saw the dealer about my problem we are sitting down with paint manager and see what options we can come up with. I told him i would rather have the running boards and he said if thats the only solution to FIX that problem they would EAT thats right i said EAT the cost of them to make me happy and they are gonna get on GM about it....... all i can say is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

 

Dark Dreamz, My dealer is fixing 2 HHRs and getting runningboards for the other HHR's in his lot. Their new motto.. "A HHR sold without runningboards is a HHR not sold here!!"

hhr:one:

 

Yeah my dealer was also saying that he said it looked like CRAP and stands out on mine with the color being black lol. Hey do me a fav can u send me your dealers phone number so mine can call him and talk to him about it. I think any thing we can do to help this problem the new HHR owners will love us for it. And thats funny since i havent owned mine for a week yet lol.

 

One of the 2 in for repair is the sales managers wife's HHR.

 

well that has to be done dont ya know it lol gotta make his/hers look good lol

 

little up date on my paint problem. Well dealer of corse said they would do all they can but they called me up said GM says all they are willing to do at this time is paint it ONE time. WTF is that it isnt a fix thats a ok here ya go on your way. Well the email from GM to the dealer even says that the running boards are the way to solve this problem. WELL then retro fit all of the ones with out it. They have me now dealing with GM direct to see what they will do for me. I told them I will only be happy with getting running board which I WILL NOT pay for. So we will see where we go from here. GM will be getting back to me. Keep you all updated......

 

If at first you don't succeed, drive'em crazy until you do succeed! I am sending a letter to Consumer Reports letting them know about the paint problems, and GM's stance. I don't expect they'll get me running boards, but I just want them to force GM into acknowledgement of the problem so they can fix it on future models.

 

If i dont get what I want which I am sure its not gonna be running board. I will tell them I will call who I have to to make a stink. Heck I will even call the news stations and show them all these post if i have to with of corse blackining out any of our names. Hope no one minds if they do let me know please. I dont want any one upset with me. Just wanna get this problem fixed. I cast the last chevy dealer 2 grand on a paint job on my colorado. No problems for me to cause a stink with GM lol and I LOVE Chevy. Just dont like this problem all of us are having.

 

Not that i will call news and stuff but it will make them think alittle lol

 

GO for it , Chevy & GM need a wake up call , we all spent over 20k for this car and should NOT be going thru this hassle to get something done , we all have a lot more to deal with like high energy prices .
I have looked at about 20+ reviews and test drives by magazines and other media and they ALL had running boards on them so they would NOT know or be able to report a paint "chipping" problem
