Took our van in on Friday.. no loaner/rental. They got it around 8:40 am and it was in for the front making noise, VRM dead, clicking in the dash, and the Z11 recall. They called me at 3:28 PM the same day telling me the Z11 was done and that I could get it as the parts for the front end(they claim just a single strut) and VRM would take till late next week + the clicking in the dash they opened a star case. So they "did the recall" all in the span(if they worked on it all day) in less than 7 hours along with all the other stuff(which the recall clearly states it is supposed to sit). So my guess is it was not performed properly at all. I brought it up with them twice and the guy I guess got annoyed with me the second time and told me "the service manager himself signed off on it". I'm guessing it was the service manager who walked out at that time to but I just stopped trying to argue with them and asked about the strut and how others (firestone) had told me they thought it was the control arm and why they thought it was just a strut.
Anyways long story short I got it home and charged it. Here is the weird thing.. A check engine light comes on when it's turned on without the brake and it begins to start flashing constantly for like 10 seconds then stops and turns solid. If you start the van though it doesn't have a check engine light. If you read the codes with Alfaobd it doesn't show any codes logged even when it's actively flashing and I can replicate it. Van still lets me drive it as well.
Oh yeah.. also no free fuel, carwash, vacuum, but they did have it charged to 88%
