It is funny why you are upset about work that was done on someone else's Vanagon when they are not upset about it themselves. I can only inspect so far. Things break. That is life. I am not superman and I have never claimed to have x-ray vision. I like Joy and she can tell you that we went the extra mile for her while her van was here.

Stop trying to drum up some kind of strife between Joy and myself. This is a matter that does not concern you, get a life!

<<<I know I am being baited and I will not rise to it, but I do want to clear the air.>>

Get an Bionic Breeze, Holmes puts out a real nice air cleaning unit too.

<< I have NEVER dealt with anyone named Robert Cardo ever. I have never spoken with him via phone or sold him a part. He has never visited me at Van-Again. Nothing. So when Mr. Cardo says a line like, "I know better" and sounds like he has some mysterious inside knowledge of the workings here at Van-Again,>>>

No, and where in the paragraph highlighted did I mention I had anything done by you--I didn't, and I wouldn't. Especially after I saw that you had Joy's Westy for an extended period of time, and after you touched it and gave it a clean bill of health, somewhere shortly thereafter she seemed to blow a hose, in the middle of nowhere, and smoked her engine.

A good thorough inspection.

Seem's to me you were wearing the wrong glasses again.

Better take a tip to Lenscrafter's--the script you are dealing with isn't working.

I casually mentioned in a warrantee situation, I know you would drop everything you are currently doing and jump right on it.

Much faster and more efficient than VW themselves.

Yea Right.

I like the rod, I like the reel, I like the line, I like the leader, I like the hook, But the bait stinks.

Nice Try Popeye.

<<2. Get you a replacement engine in a timely manner if you do have a break down (let's laugh some more).>>

Another depends. depends on the service writer, the service manager,and the parts manager all collectively working together.

You have to understand that there are more vehicles on the block than just your Vanagon.

I know Ken,you'd drop everything your currently into and get a warrantee engine job done right now. I don't believe that,and know better.>>
