To all the Batmobile fans, I am sorry to say she was very sick last week. Her fluids were leaking and her tire pressure was low and her warning lights were blinking and ringing everywhere. A trip to the car hospital was needed. We arrived at Covert Buick on Thursday morning with a doctor's appointment scheduled. The nurses took all her symptoms and whisked her away to the back, this is very serious they said, they told me not to stay and they would provide a ride home for me and they would call with the prognosis. Then four hours later they called and told me she had a lot of problems and needed to stay overnight for observation. The estimated the cost to be over $1000. DOH! This girl can be expensive. Now it is hard for me to get around without her so I said make her new! So the next day they called and told me she was ready and all her ills were fixed except the one nagging problem of clicking in the dash, they could not reproduce the problem. They think it is a vent door motor that is continuing to try to close a vent and the vent door might not be closing all the way. So they want me to bring it in when it is happening so they can analyze it then. My service rep was great, everything seems to be in good order and I am glad to be back on the road. I am always amazed at the cost of dealer auto repair. Zing, pow, zap, bong!!!! Batmobile over and gone, flying in the wind once again.
