Bill Schwab is an unknown quantity at this point
You know, what really gets me going? Anytime ANY manufacturer makes a product and refuses to admit the screw up. To name a few. Kawasaki, (engines blowing up after a week, then back tracking on replacement) Ford motor company, (transmissions on and out of warrantee) Echo, (engines seizing, and being told there was no oil in the gas when in fact there was) Honda, camshaft spinning through the engine case, and being told I overode the governor) GM (brakes on the '88 through '99 trucks were pathetic and told that was the way they were designed)

I as a human know that we are not at all perfect. I also know that if we are in business, we are ENTITLED to our profits or why the heck even be there....

And, anytime we have goofed, or if a person had an issue with ANYTHING we did, we addressed the issue. If we screwed up, we took care of it. Now, lets examine Fords transmissions. Arguably, the worst in the business. Why instead of making one that would work, did they insist on "improving" what they screwed up?

If they did as Caterpillar does and gave you a vehicle to do your work with until the one you bought is repaired, I have little I can say.

Mark, in our state, any improvement you have in a vehicle if lemon lawed, will be compensated for. Alarms, dump bodies, plows, etc. They have to write you a check for it all. The issue is, you have to file suite first, and, it usually takes 12 weeks to settle out. How long is winter? This one could be a long for you brother!
