New tires and - NOW WHAT!!!!

So I picked up my 2009 from dealer after they fixed a "cam pulley wobble" that apparently was causing a leak, and also had them install new tires. Not 12 miles later, I get a "service tire monitor" light!!! Nothing on the paperwork about them replacing that part, but I'm CERTAIN they had something to do with the sudden failure of this thing. I called Chevy Customer Care to rant about how EVERY TIME I've taken my car to Rydell, it came back with ANOTHER problem. One time, they left the OEM oil cap off completely after an oil change. Now this. Can I expect them to man up and fix or reconnect this part at no charge? Is there any other recourse besides never going back there again?

I am definitely a future NON Chevy owner after this.

Once again, it’s not your Chevy HHR, it’s the guys you’re dealing with.

The TPMS need to be relearned , if they moved the rims to a different location

Did they charge for the fix of the cam pulley wobble? Did they suggest you needed new tires?

This is not a complaint board, try reddit or the Better Business Bureau. I wager there are 100 auto repair shops within 10 miles of your home. There are at least 10 GM shops between Northridge and Anaheim. Try one. Your car is not covered by any GM warranty, so there is no reason to go back to a GM shop, especially one that has treated you poorly. Your problems have nothing to do with Chevrolet they are with a single dealership shop that is not owned by GM.

This particular problem could be that a battery in a sensor may have died. They have a 10 year life expectancy.

So when you buy your next NON-Chevy car will you be complaining about it elsewhere?

Excuse me for being blunt ,BUT, does this person know enough about automobiles to be owning one? I hear Schwinn makes a good vehicle for everyday transportation.

x2 - like who in their right mind continues to spend massive amounts of money like what has been told to us - $8000 as at previous count prior to the tire purchase?

Something is not quite right with all these threads.
tis time to close this thread i think
