Won't Start - Comin Home

[THOR]

I'm kind of curious what the dealer means by the word-"issues". What do they mean exactly?

["Backyard Mechanic"]

Sounds like a possible tranny problem.

Did you ever try to "jump" it?

Does Antivenom do warranty work?If so why did you not take it there?

[C5Rick]

When the engine was cold and the gas pedal was touched before turning the key, the car would not start. This is the issue I've had and they confirmed it does exist and I'm not...
It's an issue (I guess technically it's the informal use of the word) because they have not determined the cause and without knowing the cause a fix is not possible so it is an issue. I guess one could say instead of issue, there's a problem? I'm not highly trained like the GM techs and advisor's and I did drop out college after only completing 1/3 of my masters program

OK Rick so did someone like Antivenom or Rextreme resolve an "issue" that stumped GM?

Actually I'd think either could fix it, at least they would actively seek an answer.

Did you ever get the issue resolved or are you still polishing the vette in the garage?

I have nothing here to polish, the Vette is still at the dealership
They still have no clue what the "problem is"
Friday they told me eveything they've done so far is not covered by my warranty , though I not quite sure just what it is they've done. They said yep, my car still won't start on occasions. Something about dumping the fuel from the rails, but no idea why. Actually the did say I was wrong on one thing like most here have said... Touching the gas pedal has nothing to do with it
I'll more then likely bring it home Monday and park it in garage until I can save some more money

Damn brother that totally sucks. Might want to trade it in on a C3 they're a lot simpler kinda like me

[Ms. AntiVenom]

Keep Gregs number in mind Rick, If you need to blabber about anything


to answer one question-Every once in a while he will do warrenty work on certain stuff, Mainly customers from his dealership days (.

[C5Rick]

Well I get to bring the car home tomorrow They didn't fix / repair anything so my warranty doesn't cover any of the charges If I knew I was going to be stuck with the bill, I would have taken to Greg in the first place
They did tell me the car was now on empty and the fuel light is on.
Two months of disability checks + 7 days of dealership charges + tank of gas = no presents for Christmas this year

[THOR]

Great, JFG. Now call Greg.
