What was/is wrong with your Marauder?

Had some finish issues on hood, roof and trunk. They sent it out to a body shop and had everything buffed out but I had to deal with the swirl marks (Zaino #5). Had an area of delamination in the windshield and they repalced the windshield for me. Wipers sucked. They tried another set off a GM and I ended up replacing those with Bosch. Service from my dealership has been very good.:up:
 
Don't know if you noticed my other post, my dealer fixed the wiper position without bending it.
 
Haven't seen this posted, but at 900 miles, my driver's window stopped working (other 3 work fine, but that don't help much at toll booths). Other defects: Driver's door sticks some (seems to be loosening up) a dime size paint defect on the trunk, and some gouges in the rims. Guess I should have washed it before I bought it.
 
:mad: The "passenger side wiper parking too high" was a problem on my MM. I looked at the other 4 on the lot, 2 had it parked high, 2 did not. The other GM's i looked at were parked in the correct positions. I *****ed about it and the service department fixed it in like ten minutes. It's a simple adjustment.

I suspect somebody at the factory just put the right sides on a bit wrong. But normal, smormal. Customer is always right, especially on car the FoMoCo wants 35 cases of Ziti for.

:cool:
 
:mad2: Well, after taking delivery last June, The drivers side minnel molding, ( the rubber that the window seals into ) ripped after about 2 weeks, had it replaced but, the service tech broke the switch plate while removing the door panel. I got halfway home when the switch plate flopped against my leg,. returned the car after they ordered a new switch plate. Now, just last week the passenger side window will not open, I assume the motor self destructed, will take it back for the third time since new.
 
Things I noticed after leaving the Dealer the first time:

1. The paint on the left rear door has a small chip/bubble.

2. The trim pieces around the bumpers and tail lights don't come close to fitting properly. They stick out half an inch from the body.

3. The rear bumper feel like it is not connected to anything except at the corners.

4. No jack.

5. The engine misses badly and makes loud popping noises in the radio when the accelerator pedal is pressed when the throttle is closed (at any speed).

6. The transmission shift points suck. Period.

8,500 miles and no problems. just glad i got an early 300A with all the goodies. was concerned with the 2004s coming out with dual knock sensors and more aggresive tuning but the Jetchip and the Superchips tuner corrects that problem. i tried both and they BOTH changed the way the car drives. gives the MM ATTITUDE - A BAAAADDDD ATTITUDE!!!
 
Early 300A - (6/02) Tach waits two or three minutes before it works, then it's fine until the key is turned off. Even with an immediate restart it won't work for another two or three minutes. I'm not about to have a dealer mess up the dash until it goes out completely. At least I don't see how high the engine revs when I start the car cold.
 
I have 2000 miles so far, MM is a 300A. Check engine light came on at 400 miles. Had dealer check it, was a faulty sensor on the EGR, dealer replaced no more light. Small paint imperfection on hood. Love the car, plan on doing upgrades once warranty expires.
 
The dash pad on my car was scuffed and warped and even had a small puncture when I bought it. I made them agree to replace the entire dash as a condition to my buying the car. They readily agreed. They did a good job except where they nicked the black plastic around the radio when they put it back in. Oh, well, I expected something like that with such a major operation. The car was absolutely flawless except for that. Since then, over 2K miles and no problems...
