Default Trunk Light problem

So who else has a trunk that doesnt light up when you open it up at first, then after 3 secconds it finally kicks on?

This bugs the **** out of me, and I am gonna have them fix it tomorrow. Those ****ERS better get to it, or else I am gonna bitch somebody the **** out.

Default Take it easy................. read on and pop a valium while you're at it

Ok so on friday I had my car in at the dealer at 7:45am and by the end of the day they hadnt gotten to it. Its not like I just dropped it off, no I scheduled the appt, 2 weeks in advance.

They were to do 3 easy things

Airbag module
Loose driver seat
creaking noise from driver side rear corner

They never even got to the car... Meanwhile I was late to an appointment, got very little work done and in general had a ****ty day. I hadnt slept the night before because XP shat itself and wouldnt even blue screen, oh no I never even got beyond white text on black screen.

Maybe you missed my post on this?

Default Its not something really bad, its just annoying

I live like 20 mins from the dealer and its totally out of the way. Thus when I bring the car in to be serviced I want it serviced, not parked all day and then returned. I can do that on my own.

For ****s sake they've had the airbag module in stock for a month.
