Ok I went to the dealer, they gave me an estimate of $680 to fix the lock. Apparently since the door wont open they are going to have to break the inside door panel ($290), then they will be able to get to the lock assembly ($81) and open the door. Labor was estimated at $280. They couldnt do the work then and there because they have to order the shit. After a minute to let this sink in I almost passed out. I'm sorry but I am not going to hand a dealership almost 700 dollars to fix my door lock, its not going to happen. I understand these guys are just doing their job and they do not set their prices. Anyway, I told them that I do not have that kind of money(I really don't) and that I would have to go somewhere else to see if I could I get it done for cheaper. Thats when they got pissed. At that point they tried to talk me out of it,(they started talking sht about mom and pop garages) when they couldnt they tried to charge an hours labor to check it out. Thats when I had to make a scene. (it was oscar worthy) They did the whole "I am not raising my voice why are you" thing and please step into my office so my other customers cant hear me rape you and hear your screams from your ass tearing. Well I'm kind of screwed so it lookes like I will be getting in my car NASCAR style for a while, or until I figure out out to get the damn door open. Just needed to vent.
