You can dislike me, but this actually pissed me off. Getting the recall done arguably was the worst decision I've ever made for any car I've ever owned. It not only cost me 2 years of ownership so far without being able to drive it, but now I don't trust it and have lost every modicum of faith I had in my local dealership to begin with.

Who would think that a voluntary recall performed by professionals would possibly destroy the vehicle's engine, and they'd charge the owner for it! Never again will I take a voluntary recall unless it comes with written agreement for inpatient psychiatric therapy and full buy-back guarantee of the vehicle should something go unexpectedly.

Ok, I'm sorry. I'm not mad at YOU, Grady, I'm mad at my hobby and at myself. </tears>
