GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

i just got a phone call from some lady asking me if i wanna go "discuss" my vibe with the engineers that built it. She said it gonna last like 60 - 90 mins and i get payed 100 bucks to do it.... what do u think?

What are you waiting for?

Why are you asking MAN! Go you silly fool, GO! Any chance to make improvements on our vehicles takes away our right to ***** and complain about problems and imperfections. They give us a chance, and if we don't speak up...its all on us.

I got the same invitation. I'm going to Tarrytown, NY on Sunday (10/27). See the following thread:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=1127

im goin there sat 10/26 at 1:30

Give us a debriefing when you`ll be back !

You just got a call on the 25th and you got a Saturday afternoon appointment?! How come on the 22nd when I got my call back they only had 9:00am on Sunday available? I have to leave home at 6:00 am just to make it there on time.Whe you get back, let me know how it went and what to expect.

Well i just got back, its about 7:30pm. My apointment was at 1:30 .Umm i am so0o happy i went, i though it was just going to be like a group survey type thing and i was just gonna get payed to go. But i was so much more.Scott, i used the list of complains that u made up in a previous post and i added some of my own. The guy that was taking me around was impressed that i came so prepared. Anyway...When u go make sure to complain about EVERYTHING that is wrong with ur car, i mean anything u can think of. They have garages with engineers waiting to service ur car, its better than the dealer. All u do is tell em whats wrong and the bend over backwards to fix it. They were all surprsingly nice. They have like specialists in each area, sqeeks, paint, leaks, breaks, electrical, air conditioning, ect. I had all of the sqeeks and vibrations in my car fixed, i mean everywhere, in the doors, the dash, the trunk.They tightened my ebrake, they readjusted my ac so now it actually gets cold, apparently the know wasnt set right. They even buffed out and touched up little dings and scratchs on my paint.I told them about the crappy chrome on the driver and passenger door that gets faded and said that they would replace it but the order for new ones didnt come in yet.As i posted b4, i kinda blew out some speakers. I told them about it and they were all ready to replace them but couldnt because they didnt have a rivet gun. So instead they just gave me a brand new set of speakers for all four doors. (BTW i blew out 3)In each garage there were like 15 guys lookin at my car askin me if anything else was wrong with it. They were very willing to help me with everything. I got mostly everything fixed, i forgot the mention the car kinda pulls to the left a little bit.I'd go again if i could, i got all the problems with my car fixed, got to give them my input and to top it all off i got a $100!

sorry for the ongoing incoherent sentences.... im really tired.Oh btw Scott make sure to mention that ur from genvibe when u talk to ur interviewer, i told them u were coming tomm

Awesome! I can't wait to talk to them. I didn't realize they were going to work on the car too! Maybe they can get rid of my dash squeaks.BTW, I got my service manuals yesterday and used the info in them to remove the lateral bars of the roor rack. It looks great. I can't wait for the 2-hour drive on the highway to see if the wind noise is less and if the mileage is better.

Cool, can yo tell us the results of removing the lateral bars, and more importantly, how to do it !

i explained it in another post.. but whatever u do. DO NOT REMOVE THE ACTUAL ROOF RACK... i did, this causes leaks. When they are installed its a one time thing, they are not removable without causing damage...

Let's hope they pass this information on to the dealers when we bring our vehicle's in for similar problems and annoyances.We should all have a chance to bring our vehicle to be personally worked on... haha, in my dreams. Thanks LocDoc and Nova for getting the opportunity to represent your Vibe. They definately made a good pick for people who care about their vehicle and will give them all necessary information. (I'm waiting for Nova's follow-up soon.. )

Nice

WOW they fixed your chrome, why the hell is my dealer giving me such a hard time with my chrome, also my center steering wheel emblem is chipping anyone else have this problem. Oh and one more thing can you believe someone stole my rear window wiper?

Why don't they have this type of review with Canadian vibe owners?

Cause Canada Sucks...

I'll have to disagree with you LocDawg. Canada is Gods land.

quote:Cause Canada Sucks...What a rude statement to make to someone regarding their place of residence. Canada is a very beautiful place to tour and I'll bet $1000.00 that you haven't even been there. This is not a bashing website and we respect people regardless of their race or residence --we are only concerned with Vibe topics.

quote:Cause Canada Sucks... To all Americans: Don't worry. I don't consider this to be the opinion of this site or Americans in general. I have been watching this guy's posts and realize that the source of the comment is not very high up the evolutionary ladder. I visit regularily (recently enjoyed the SCCA Pro Rally in the Michigan U.P.) and have a great time with Americans and get plenty of respect. I live in an area that is heavily visited by Americans who keep coming back over and over.... Apparently they don't think Canada Sucks. To LocDog:No apology expected.

Hello. I'm new here and have looked everywhere I know to look but can't find your directions on removing the lateral bars . How about posting the directions here? Thanks.

Doing a Search for "lateral bars", I found the post you want:http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id ... =9498#9498

Thank you.

Actually... I've been to CANADA, so wheres my money? You can buy me some new rims.

Playful rivalry aside...lets drop the debate. Trust me, I'm a master-debator and you guys wouldn't stand a chance versus my homegrown Michigan U.P. wit. Got it ya hosers? Aye? Seriously though...lets all drop it or admin's gonna step in.

Dont get all testy, i just gave a playful remark and everyone is catching offense...

Yes and I'm all ways watching.

LOL. I am Canadian. I take no offence from Locdog's post. There are some things about my country that do suck. I absolutely adore and admire the U.S.A , but some things about it suck too. One thing about Canada that really sucks is, when you order a VIBE, it takes 6 months to get it. That sucks! I'd be willing to bet that you love Canadian beer Locdog. Note to Canadians: don't take posts like Locdog's too seriously. We need to confidently laugh at such words and proudly move on.

Missed your post until now Vibe Rater.quote: Note to Canadians: don't take posts like Locdoc's too seriously. We need to confidently laugh at such words and proudly move on.Yes I fully considered the source of the comment.

Yea America sucks too...And its LOCDOG
