My local Ford dealer is about 5k away and the place that delivered it is about 30k away. Didn't make sense to drive all that way to get it sorted.I complained to the supplying dealer today and I sent them the summary of what work was done on the car. I hope that they sort out how it passed their pre-delivery procedure and it doesn't happen to anyone else.In hindsight, I should have gone around the block and took it back.I think a site sticker is a good idea and yes, I have tint (not too dark)I am meeting up with a mate who drives a WRX STI this weekend so we can give them a bit of a squirt down the coast. Beautiful to drive, just gotta watch how quickly I exceed the speed limit.Still smiling!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
