We finally got this little trip re-scheduled and made today. This was a quick little trip up the interstate to drop off my husband's new compressor, which is under warranty and quit working properly.
He had a little surprise when he got there and wasn't happy about it. They charged him $65.00 to cover looking at the equipment to determine if the repairs were covered under warranty. He will get the money back IF it is covered under warranty. If not, he loses the money. He was not happy about that at all.
This was a short trip, only about an hour and a half away--maybe a little more. On the way home we stopped at Cracker Barrel for a late lunch. We also stopped at Walmart when we got closer to home to pick up milk and another case of bottled water.
That about sums up my day. What did you do today? Anything exciting or just a normal day?

I agree. He needs to read warranty papers. They better not come back with "this isn't covered" under warranty either. It's been in the shed when not in use. Just started malfunctioning and spurting oil out. It has a four year warranty, only 3 years old--remember he was stressing over getting it there in time. Geesh!! If they say not covered, they will be getting some BAD reviews and no more business.

@kareng I would fight them on it if they say that.

Sorry about the fee. There shouldn't be any with a warranted product. I will be going to see my hubby today. Have a good day and a great long weekend.

Apparently this is a new thing with a lot of places and warranties. Because dumb people bring things in that were run over or damaged on purpose, they started doing this. A mechanic in a repair shop told us this. So I guess it is a "thing" now. Our world is changing too fast and not for the better either. I'm just wondering how much longer we have before we belong to the government and socialism. It's coming FAST.
