Sierra Returns For A Few Days

OCTOBER 18, 2024

Today was all about getting Sierra back for a few days. Sierra was supposed to be gone one over night. Last night was night 2 and we did not hear from the dealer this morning. So we called and left messages we need to know what the schedule is since we are about out of food in the Castle.

After a few hours of no replies we pushed a bit harder with the messages we left on the phone. Finally around noon we finally talked with the service writer and found out a bit. Sierra is getting a new solenoid that is on order and will likely show up next week they hope. So we requested the Castle back so we could get out and around town to take care of things like eating and grocery shopping.

The person who does the pick ups and take backs would be right over to pick us up in twenty minutes. An hour later he had not shown up. We called again and was told he went to lunch and the OFM was next on his list. About a half hour later he showed up. His story did not agree with what the OFM was told but now the OFM was ready for the stupidness he expected to encounter at the shop. Surprisingly it went really smooth and we rolled out with Sierra reasonably quickly. Sometime next week when the new solenoid arrives we will be taking Sierra back for that installation. We shall see what good that does. Sierra is definitely not running right but is still getting us to where we need to be in time. This dealer is Lynn Layton Chevrolet in Decatur Alabama.

Anyway the waiting time was spent doing house cleaning that needed doing and preparing the Castle for our planned and hopeful November 18 rolling west on I-20.

Try to have some fun for us OK.
