To me this is a warning sign that they don't care about your business . OK then take your business elsewhere . Assuming you can find a shop you trust .

A dealership especially a domestic one is $hit- none of 'em are worth paying. Sloppy work and they treat the customers like trash. Give your business to a smaller shop where the owner works on cars and actually cares about their reputation.
I took my Z06 to the same dealership without issue. Not now. Time to find a new place.

Dealerships survive on the reputation to be able to fix anything and having oem parts…

Only idiots take their cars to a dealership out of warranty or for inflated oil changes… (intentional disparagement)
