NE Ohio dealers and oil line recall.

Anyone in the NE Ohio area that has done the oil line recall and can give a solid recommendation for a dealer?

I had mine done at Sarchoine Ford near Akron. They did an ok job. Where in Oh are you?

I haven't had any service work done there, but Klaben was outstanding during the buying process.

Near Chardon

I'm halfway between Akron and Youngstown

Did you ask them how many they had done? Second question, my original recall notice said their would be a fix announced (or something like that, I don't have it in front of me). I never got a follow up letter. Are we just supposed to call a dealer an ask them to order the recall parts and schedule a service?

I couldn't take delivery until they did the recall. They had 3 other GT350s at that store and another at their sister dealer.

I am not in OH (NYC) but I assume the process is the same for the recall. I too had been patiently waiting to get a letter in the mail as per the recall notice but I gave up waiting and called my dealer yesterday, they mentioned something about it being VIN specific and that they had to order the parts individually for my car/each recall fix they do but they can start the order now. Apparently it should take them 3 or 4 days to get the parts and then I can book in for the job. I asked them if they were ever going to tell me this if I hadn't called and they simply said that they were only able to do this recently and they would of sent me a letter at some point.....

They told me the parts were ordered on a Tuesday and the car was done by Thursday. From the research I did, it doesn't look that difficult. The one thing you'll want to check is the splitter to make sure it's installed correctly. I fixed mine myself, but I have a lift. If anyone local needs help with the splitter, I'll be glad to help out.

Thanks! I kind of figured this would be the case. Not quite ready to bring her out of storage. Need a week or so of a good rain soaking to wash the roads of salt.

Thanks. My splitter is already missing a bolt from the original dealer install (out of state). I'll check the install and ask to have a new bolt fastened and check when I get home.

I also bought my car out of state so I guess nobody is going to send me anything. I'll call the dealer in Vermont where I got it to see what they say.
