So on Monday I was driving my mom to work, check engine light came up, so I took my truck to the dealer so they see what was the problem as well take the opportunity to address some other minor issues I encounter in that same week such as:
-cruise control disengaging itself as well failing to engage at all.
-onstar monthly continuos report about issues with airbag system.
-Parking Break no really doing anything when applied (in terms of keeping the car from moving when park up/down
anyways they encounter some other issues, and they end up changing some sensors, onstar speaker which I think was blown, the cruse control nonsense and even my radiator. It was all cool with me since everything was cover under warranty and I would only have to pay the deductible and radiator hose which weren't cover by the warranty.
Everything took about a week to be finish, I got my truck back on sat, and it was all cool or so I taught I was so excited to have my truck back that I didn't realize that my steering wheel wasn't center when trying to keep the tires straight (steering wheel is slightly turned to the right when the wheel are straight). And while driving back I engage the cruise control and it was working fine until it start disengaging again by itself and finally it would not engage at all again.
which made me suspicious and I decided to check under the hood to see if they did indeed replace the radiator or no, to which I did noticed some new screws and pieces that look new however the front of the radiator look just like the old one but I don't know if that front part is just a cover and the radiator is behind it. Anyways I'll upload some pics so up guys see what I'm talking about. Lastly they says they flush the cooling system twice, which would mean that they would replace the cooling fluids, but my cooling fluid container it has the same amount it had before I took the truck in. Which raises another red flag.
So here it is everything they "did" let me know what u think i'm going back to the dealer today to let them know this garbage...i just want to know what u all guys think. Sketchy Or No Should I Be Concerned Or No.





my retarded steering wheel

"new radiator" or parts that look new Minus the front part of the radiator, and the cooloing flood more than half way.
