The Auto manufacturers tried to lobby Trump to back them in dealership only service and repair. He turned them down. I spent a short time as a counter man for Napa. They had signs on the counter warning about that in the seventies. I understand John Deere is already doing that. We’re just one wrong election away from that happening. Just look at California with their restrictions. We have to pay attention.
The dealer I bought my truck from is actually pretty good. The problem is the labor force issues due to the dealer industry practices. They are struggling to keep experienced mechanics due to the pay structure, and the fluid change staff is minimum wage and uncertified. I still work with them when I need to, but I have had issues due to incompetence or lack of care as I described above. The unauthorized software update issue I suspect is driven by GM policy, but it is still an issue. It is my goddamn truck once i take delivery. You don’t modify it without my permission.
