You keep saying "we"..
I have a long list of "we" as well.
What if this "OP" pissed you off??????
This would be a good thread>>>>>
We both are here, etc.......
Just trying to keep it real....
You may have a lot more sway at your Stihl Dealership, but please don't intimate that that scenario is the norm....
I no longer work for those big dealers because of the warranty thing, they make no sense.
But, step back on this thread, I think there is some more to consider here, if not, well...........
I'm with ya Fish. In my deep thought and crystal ball I think I know clearly exactly what took place. One was wishing for how soon and the other was saying not now if ya knows what I means and I know you know exactly what I mean, it happens all the time. That little word no and not now is hard to accept at times especially if told in the wrong tone.
I've never had a problem with doing warranty for Stihl. In fact they, in almost 20 years now, have never once denied me a claim. Topping that they always credit the account within 48 hours of any warranty work I submit. Course now I don't file any bogus claims and anything major I call first before chancing it and hoping they approve it. I always know beforehand on anything big whether its approved before I do the work. I've also stepped up to the plate when they got a complaining customer from another dealer and helped them out, it pays off good.
How good well let me tell ya. My leak down tester went kapoot 2 weeks ago, guages just quit working, I was like what the hell. Thing is about 7-8 years old, cost over 150.00, got it from Stihl. I figured what the heck, maybe I can get new guages for it or have it fixed. So I called down to Stihl, got my main man on the phone and asked him is there some way to fix this tester. He goes sure is, file warranty on it and get a new one. I was like wow. I told him well I'll send you the old one and maybe you can get it working. He says no, he didn't need it, just file a claim on it and get a new one. I was like yes sir ree. Got the new tester in and when my rep comes in I'm gonna ask him if he wants the old one, if not she's going in file 13...
