RE: [DML] DMCH performance exhaust (rust issue - need opinions)

[corey ooms <coreysmoo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have my own guy who had previously done my Fiero's exhaust.  He does great work.  So, no, DMCH did not install it.  But they still charged $1,500 for a system that I have to pull back off the car and send away for rust issues after less than a year of being garage kept.  WTF?

Did DMCH do the installation? If so, then I think its clearly theirresponsibility to handle the labor and shipping.KermitP-----Original Message-----From: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf OfcoreysmooSent: Saturday, May 19, 2007 2:32 PMTo: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: [DML] DMCH performance exhaust (rust issue - need opinions)In August of last year, I bought DMCH's performance exhaust system. I have no problem with the system itself and love it. My problem is that I have had the system on the car for roughly 7 months and there is a nice build up of surface rust on it already. One of the mechanics at DMC Midwest told me that it looks like rust that should take years to build up. I don't drive the car every day, and keep it in a garage under a cover, so it is not exposed to the elements very much.Steven Wynne personally took a look at the exhaust at the DMC Midwest grand opening and told me that they get these systems coated by Jet-Hot coatings and I would have to talk to them to fix this problem.I called Jet-Hot and they told me that they will correct the problem for free under warrenty for up to 3 years, but I would have to send in the exhaust system to them to be repaired. They also told me that I am responsible for shipping and any other costs not covered by the warrenty.Now, my question is, do you think DMC should have to flip the bill for removing the exhaust, shipping, and putting it back on the car? I didn't pay $1,500 for a system that I would have rust problems with after only 7 months of being on a garage kept car. I don't have ready access to a lift and it would be quite a pain in the ass for me to get the exhaust on and off in my garage.Penny for your thoughts?Corey2423[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
