Well, lemme say, I am being taken care of VERY well by the dealer thus far. They accepted my VX with open arms, set me up and had a loaner prepared for me, and pulled it right into the shop when I pulled in.
Before I left there to go to work, a tech came into the office and asked me to come and look at something. I thought "Oh ****e". He asked me if I had ever noticed anything odd about my radio antenna. I couldnt thing of anything, especially since I had waxed my roof last Sunday and it looked fine to me. Well, he reached up and unscrewed it and showed it to me. It was melted 1/2 way down! He seems to think that lightning may have struck my VX and hit the antenna this past week. We did have thunderstorms all week, so I guess it's possible. He said he would run a full diagnostic to make sure there was no electrical damage, if in fact that is what happened. Uhg, so I am keeping my fingers crossed on this one.
The good thing is, if the window motor does have a problem, they have all the parts in stock. And if that is all that is wrong, I will have it back today. I will share the rest of this experience with a "so far" good dealer.
