Rats. The dealership made a boo boo when installing the body kit. The front lip isn't sitting flush on one side (pics to compare).

Debating if I should bring it back. Part of me wants it fixed because its annoying, but not sure if I want to go through the hassle. Also I think drilling and glue were involved so not even sure how easily fixable this is... :(

Once the baby arrives I'll probably be too tired to care.

Zoom in. Its where the silver part meets the front edge of the bumper. 2nd pic has a large gap, its 1.5 or 2 mm.

Ok I see it now. I don't know. I'm picky too but that does not look like a big gap. Plus you run the risk that the dealer will make it worse.

Hmm. I will send an email tomorrow and see about how conveniently this can get done.

I might have to leave the car with them for a few days and, horror, drive the GLK.

1st world problems...or shall I say problems of the 1%?  ;)

But yeah, bring it in. Your brand new $60k+ Swedish masterpiece deserves better. Are you gonna start a new Moan'nWhine thread for the Volvo now?  ;D ;D

Their screw up, they should give you an S60 or something.  As a premium car brand, a shuttle isn't good enough.

+1

Not only not good enough, it's unacceptable. You've just dropped $50 large on a brand new car, one that's in its first model year. You need to be treated like a king by this dealership. Volvo has never ceased to amaze me with their customer service though; my other half's XC70 is getting up there in both age and mileage and the dealer always gives us excellent treatment.
