My vehicle was taken to Legacy Chevrolet of Waxahachie where a routine recall notice was addressed. During the process they technician broke my battery terminal. Upon my discovery the dealership claimed the broken terminal must have just broke on its own during the time it was at their dealership in spite of the ECM module update requiring the technician to specifically remove the battery cable from that specific terminal. Legacy has refused to address this issue and charged me for the new batteries as well as for the tow that was required. The damage was caused by their technician and all of the costs incurred should have been absorbed by the dealership.

This manual seat does not have an adjustment for up and down. Short people can not adjust to see over the hood when driving. Their solution is to sit on a cushion. This makes the seatbelt fit wrong and you slide around on the seat. This is a safety hazard with no solution. The “kits” you buy then make the seat a risk to disconnect from the truck.
