Repeat response publicly to hide my contact information…… I do not know what you would do now. I spoke with Jay after writing this message. I spent the rest of yesterday working on the truck myself and got it cleared. I had to go elsewhere and get the code read which was U11E9 and C2206-00. Couldn’t even get that done there as you told me you did not have anything that could connect to my truck since it is not a Chevy. Still not sure fully how my priorities for life that I got with my truck when you company was priority works except I was told I can get my free oil change and inspection there so long as I agree to let you all other work on my truck. That makes no sense seeing I was just told that you have no ability to work on my truck since it is not a Chevy. I disconnected the AGS and reconnected the light has been back off since. As Jay said he watched the video also and there was no mention of the CEL at that time. There is no mention in the service paperwork and until I went outside after paying $184.01 did I find the CEL on. So basically I feel I just paid $184.01 so someone there could mess up a wire on my truck and I got to spend the rest of the afternoon troubleshooting and fixing the issue myself because you were not equipped to fix it and now I am suppose to trust another maintenance on my truck to you. There is no mention of it either on the inspection paperwork that says it was done by David though the video had Russ and Russ is the one that they went to and he immediately caught John back in the shop area to say it was already that way once he got it from the parking lot. Honestly a low voltage could have caused the issue too if was in “ON” position so that Russ could manipulate the throttle while he was cleaning but at least the disconnect and reconnect has worked so far. Also looking at the receipt I see a charge for $6.99 for materials then there is a $25.50 charge for misc charges which I can only assume is part of the 17% small print shop supply charge. The 25.50 is 17% of the 149.99 I was charged. If I already paid for the shop supply then why charged again for another 6.99
