At an NSX event this weekend, I won a gift certificate for a complete detailing from our local luxury/specialty car shop. I took them up on it yesterday, but when I picked up the car, I noticed a few problems:
1) The felt lining in the center compartment and the change container had been scratched off - In one area, there is a hole the size of your palm, exposing the metal below.
2) When I purchased the car, there was some minor bubbling in the metallic paint around the center air conditioning vent. When the car was being cleaned, however, they managed to rip some of this paint off, exposing the plastic below.
3) Here's the strange one - Since taking the car in for detailing, the LCD display on the A/C is messed up. To begin with, the digit readout shows incorrect digits, with 6's and 5's showing as 8's, etc. In addition, "MODE" LCD display is always lit up. I know that they cleaned area under the hood and applied a protectant on the wires. Is it possible that the protectant is causing a short circuit? I had hoped that this was the case, and that it would be gone by this morning, but the problem persists.
I'm going back to talk with them about the car today, but needless to say, I'm a bit upset. They seem to be a pretty classy joint, so I'd be suprised if they don't fix the problems, but I don't know how to diagnose the A/C problem, which I would wager has a simple solution. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Aaron
