All I can say is F@#$ Chantilly Dodge.
If you remember, I lost my keypad for my 94 viper. Had to tow it over to closest dodge which was them beacuse I did not want to leave it outside and was going on vacation the next day. All they had to do was reprogram another remote. When i dropped it off I told them, just program me a remote. "sure, no problem" they say.
I got a call a WEEK later, and they said it will be $250 for a new remote and program. So I said no way, and called the Wizard for advice.( who is freakin fantastic by the way ) and he explained they are over charging me for the remote and that it is CAKE to reprogram another remote. You just ground a green wire down by the alarm box and put the key in and hit a button basically. He said i should print out the how-to directions on this page and bring it to them if they tried to say it was hard.
I gave them a remote to my 93 viper which I was told would work that way I could just get it out of the dealership without ordering a new remote. They said it will be $140 beacuse they had to run diagnostic tests to figure out what was wrong. They had to plug up their computers and etc to reprogram it.
I argued with the man for over an hour on what the hell he had to do that is costing me so much money. After him [******] to me for so long he finally said "you know what im going to unprogram your remote and you can just pay the $60 diagnostic charge and pick up your car" and he hung up.
[******]?
He argued, "Well i have to pay my mechanics" I said, thats fine, but if all they have to do is ground a simple wire, it shouldn't take that long, what is all this other crap you are doing. That started a big fued.
Im not sure what to do, im leavin in a few minutes to go there in person.
