How bad is dealership service??

All details have not been released yet, but according to local news...

Some guy and his wife were in the local Chevrolet dealership trying to get a service problem solved. Apparently, there was some heated argument going on with the service rep, when the guy pulled out a gun and shot himself.

Maybe one of the other 3 Greenville Pelicans have some more info to post...

Probably had very little to do with the service place...

A coworkers ex-girl friend got woken up at 3am one morning by her husband blowing his brains out with a shotgun... in the bed.

Just bad timing.

I guess the repair wasn't covered under warranty.......

Damn, guess I will have to watch the news tonight. Was is at Kevin Whittier--they used to have some really nice old Corvettes in there (back before I saw the light and got a 911). I agree it was probably bad timing. We used to discuss what we would do at work if a customer pulled a gun--some people used to get absolutely irate over trivial things that were easily taken care of and threaten to come in and beat all of our asses. It was crazy times, glad I am out.

Yeah... KW's place.
I haven't heard anything else about it, and can't find any writeup in the Greenville paper.

Could have had nothing to do with the dealership, but then again.... Maybe his wife was banging the service manager.
