well not to be a pessimist but if it's anything like mine expect delays. They told me 3 weeks, then once they took it apart they had to wait for parts that they didn't think they would need....

Same thing happened with mine, the more parts they took off the more they saw they needed to replace, course that's kind of expected when you roll it...

Well, I absolutely love Geico. Miramar collission is a Geico Express Service Center. Well, the estimate was $1,994.00. I will have my truck by Monday. Since I am a Geico customer, I go to the head of line. They inspected it and pulled it apart already today and the parts have been ordered and one their way. The break light problem was the pedal sensor for the lights. The local dealer is delivering that tomorrow and that will be fixed.

That is good news man. It sucks this happened to you, but at least you are getting a speedy turn around.

Well, if I were to tell you the truck was finished...that I got a call last night, after I dropped it off on Monday morning (the day before)...you would all think I was crazy. Well, see for yourself. And I asked to see the receipt of all the parts...they were new from Chrysler. They were ordered on Monday morning and some arrived Monday afternoon and the bumper arrived yesterday early AM. And they did a great job.

I am thinking the same thing. I know there is one in Orange County. So they could've ordered and had the stuff delivered that afternoon with it being only 2 hours from the shop.
