Just talked to regional rep. Nice gentlemen. It is definately a legal issue and they are working frantically to get it resolved so we may get our cars sooner than later.

Great update, thanks Paul.
Was trying to find the info for the rep that visited Ottawa, dealers seem to know almost nothing, but I think there is very limited info flowing, so can't really blame this on them.
Hopefully this weekend!!

I just read in another thread that the discrepancy is in the section regarding the SRS or Safety Restraint System.

That would cause legal issues for sure if there was something printed in error. Damn lawyers.

That somewhere in Canada tomorrow one of us here's word that our cars are moving to their final destination. us! I don't care if its Bneale out west Klinn. Slick or the guys in Halifax or any others in Canada, please just have some good news for a change. The wait is now officially too long to be considered fun.

Pretty sure the issue is the owners manual as others have stated...

It's the same story here on the east coast. Reportedly, the 1st week of june mine will be arriving.

I called my sales rep at my dealership yesterday and as of 3:45pm yesterday, they honestly know nothing.

They cannot even tell me if my car is going to be here or not. They just promised to call me as soon as they hear something.

Still waiting... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I got my VIN number yesterday and was told i could pick up the car later this week or early next week most likely.

Slick · 05-30-2012, 04:53 PM

That's probably the case for a dealer that already received a car. For those of us still waiting for cars to be delivered, they are hopefully swapping the manual while the car is in the shipping yard. I'm guessing our cars (Ottawa-bound) are in a Toronto lot.

BOGUS!
