So the situation is that I need a compression test done, however, the dealership's tester in Lethbridge is malfunctioning/broken and has been sent off for repair. As of Friday this will have been 3 whole weeks I've been waiting for it to get fixed.

If by this Friday I can't get a time frame from them of when they'll get it back and I can go in for the test I was thinking of risking the drive and having it done in Calgary and just have them send the results to Lethbridge.

Whether or not they like that, they're not giving me much choice... So does anyone have preference as to which dealership I should go? I was looking at Kramer since its right off the highway.


On that note, and if that's the case, would anyone be up for a lunchtime meet on Saturday?

 

I've always gone to North Hill Mazda. They always treated me with respect and was upfront.

 

Sunridge has 'acceptable' service...
My only bad experience with them, is when they left 2 pliers and a screwdriver in my engine bay!!! I drove home without knowing...They could have fallen out of my engine bay while I was in motion. Luckily they didn't and I ended up blasting the service dudes for it...

Stoney...
I only started going to StoneyTrail for 1.5yrs, because they are 5 minutes from where I live...
This is all within the past few months...
-Overfilled my oil, flowed into my airbox...ruined my air filter and I had to clean the airbox and intake after, I didn't notice till 3 weeks later so I didn't complain -
-scratched ALL four of my OEM rims while mounting my new Yokohamas on...my rims were hellah dirty when I dropped them off to mount, and again...I didn't notice till like 2 weeks later when I washed them...
-overfilled my brake fluid

If I don't get another Mazda, it will probably be because of the service quality...

 

Yikes, that sounds pretty awful! I think I'm going to stay with Kramer just because its right off MacLeod Trail. And I'm pretty sure by the time I get up there my car will be stalling every time I come to a stop... so the less I have to, the better.

I'm waiting on my dealership again, but if they fail me for the 4th week in a row I'll probably be wondering Southcenter mall on Saturday while my car gets tested.
