Default I really hate dealerships

I just recently took my 06 base in for my 30k service. But i get my car back and now when my motor is cold i have this high pitch squeak that sounds likes its coming from the transmission area. It doesn't perform or drive any different that I can tell. any ideas? Thanks.

Take it back to the dealership and tell them the situation... before there was no squeek and after the service there is a squeek... they should be able to help you.

I'm working on an appointment to get back there. it's over an hour drive so i want to know they can see me. I feel almost certain they missed something, not because of the squeak but they also didn't adjust my head lights. I even left my car there for 3 days so they could change my belts and pulleys. (which never got done somehow)

Why it is important to develop a excellant relationship with employees so you are treated better than average, if you want to be [and can afford to be] treated better than average.

more like they smile in your face and treat you the same as every joe blow that comes through the door.

they could give a **** about your car, or the extra $10 you tip them.

on a side note, you probably had your drive belts replaced at 30k miles and they were not properly tightened causing them to squeal. Easy fix, you could do yourself in 10 mins if you know how to tighten a tensioner pulley?
