Greetings,
Just wanted to report on the overwhelmingly positive experience I had towing a small (< 1600 lbs loaded) teardrop trailer for nearly 5000 miles around the Western US with my 2024 BSBL.
MPG (as reported by the car itself) was between 18 and 19.
I really appreciated the extra...
No, this shop doesn't seem like the kind of place to report something they did themselves as a defect, particularly since they knew the car is under warranty and wouldn't be fixing it at their shop. I'm just going to keep an eye on it.
From the original post: "they flagged both leaky rear shocks and evidence of an oil leak."
The shocks were indeed faulty and were replaced. The engine oil leak evidence was deemed to be from a spill, not a leak. I will be keeping an eye on it moving forward.
Subject says it all. I took my 2024 Badlands to a local shop for an oil change and they flagged both leaky rear shocks and evidence of an oil leak.
The dealer (Sill-Terhar in Broomfield, CO) was very good about getting me an appointment and a valet to pick-up and drop-off the car. They had it...
I was able to remove the Badlands badges from my new BS with no tools other than my fingers. There was no perceivable residue left on the paint.
Obviously, your mileage may vary, but I was all prepared with an eraser wheel to finish the job, which I ended up returning to the Advance Auto Parts...
