What dealership are you using? Nothing more frustrating than poor communication

well, it's nice to see even the best made cars in the world still aren't "perfect."

You should find out from the dealer whether or not you're the first 06 GS back under warranty... maybe you could score a free t-shirt or something.

i'm took the car to lexus Mission Viejo. I called my service advisor and he said "oh we called yesterday, did you get the message?" umm no, otherwise i wouldn't have called. I think the girl at the cashiers desk didnt bother to call me yesterday when it was done. But i got my car back and i'm happy so nice to be able to drive it again

funny, today there were corporate folks touring the facility (japanese business men in suits) so the whole dealership was spotless and well staffed w/ smiley faces.
