Airbag Recall Hassle Update

Ok, my car was brought in last night to get the "spiral spring" replaced,
which caused problems soon after I had the airbag recall done.  Since it was
Halloween, I really didn't want my car waiting to be vandalized with the few
other vehicles in the service lot.  The dealer agreed to store my car inside
overnight, which they also graciously did when the recall service was done.
Got the car back this afternoon, and all was well, so far.  The dealer
didn't charge me a cent, and they were very pleasant about it, or so I hear.
I say this because I am had a family member bring the car in for the service
both times, since I'm at school right now.  The fact that the dealer screwed
up the first time would have bothered me enough if I would have personally
brought the vehicle in, but having someone else do it for me made the
situation even worse.  Anyway, hopefully it's over now, and Motorville
Audi/VW/Nissan in Sheboygan WI is now off my $hit list.  I'm glad they were
so reasonable about taking care of my car.  We'll just have to wait and see
if anything else pops up next time I drive the car... :)
