Dealership dropped something in cylinder head during spark plug replacement

Salesman: "We've got people calling from all over the US, wanting to buy that truck".
Sales Manager: "Great! Don't sell it for a dime under $29,950."

 

Party animals

 

OP, You traded this back in San Fran or Palo Alto where is was purchased?

So far just bullshit propaganda

 

Im paying attention, we got the meal im lookin for the recipe!

 

These guys have seem to stop all communication sales person wont return calls or respond to emails

 

So in other words...we should all call and ask questions about it out of curiosity?

 

Yes

reddit wasn't nearly as engaged

 

Yeah, the responses were pretty limited.

 

SF Toyota has stopped all communication when I started asking questions about this truck....

I asked to see all maintenance records on the 60K service and what was done and got absolutely nothing.

 

I just sent an email asking for pictures. Lets see what happens!

 

With all the inquiries I'm sure they realized something was up. Most buyers don't ask so many questions.

 

Yeah my next email might just be..

Hey Tim,

I understand you had to remove and replace the head and possible piston from your Tech breaking his ratchet and pieces falling into the cylinder. After a VIN search on the internet I found that you had some complications when changing the spark plugs Can you explain way this is not on the service records?

I can provide pictures if you would like?

Thanks Again,
