If it was me (I am a major smart ass when pissed off) I would:


Order the new part from Dealership2, and pay out of pocket.
Ask dealership1 AGAIN if they have the part in yet.


When they say NO I would go down there and slam the part on the guy's desk and say "then why the hell could I get the part from the dealer down the street in TWO DAYS!?!"


Then I would demand my car back immediately and take the car to dealership2.


And I sure as hell hope you are driving a loaner from dealer1 all this time or I would be livid.


My latest experience with the dealer was: They had my car to replace the headlight for condensation.
I told them to check the front timing cover for oil leaks because I could smell oil burning and saw smoke from the front of the engine.


They said "Yep the timing chain cover is leaking, we'll fix it!"
So they gave me a loaner and had my car back to me in 2 days (with one of the two days the entire city was shutdown from a snowstorm).


So if my dealer can R&R a front timing chain cover with all associated parts in ONE DAY, I think your dealer should be able to replace a trans bushing in less than a week.
