mine was the same thing except it was my fault. my car was on jack stands for over 2 months and when i put it back together i apparently missed one bolt on the linkage. it drove me crazy.
my friend is a tech for a dealer and he found the problem right away. he made sure to smack me around for being a numbnut
billman is right that there is no reason to have any play in the steering.

...But there's the old saying "don't piss-off your waiter before your food comes." Same idea applies to me; if this guy is reprimanded for not listening to my complaints, and he ever works on my car again... Well you can imagine. If I knew without a doubt he'd never go near my car again, I wouldn't hesitate to tell his boss about him, but I can't risk him holding a grudge until next time he sees my car. And if I had more confidence in the technical knowledge of his boss I might feel differently also, but I don't.
Further thoughts: The service manager at Madison was the one that tried to tell me (and other new Honda owners) that running the A/C in a car didn't sap any engine power, I and several others disagreed, don't know if the guy is just an idiot or what.

paid to be a member of their service club, meaning I get really cheap oil changes ( and change), free loaners, and free food and drinks in their service area waiting room.

[QUOTE=Wisconsin S2k,Feb 28 2006, 12:01 PM] ALL newer hondas come with a free loaner car if you need it (that's offered by AHM), and any decent dealership has free snacks and drinks/coffee in their waiting rooms.

Per AHM warranty and certified used warranty. Any service work done that requires the car to be dropped off at the dealership, AHM will reimburse the dealership for the cost of a rental car for the customer.

As long as the car stays more than a day. Rentals aren't covered for 1 day visits.

I was not aware of that. Do you know where I can get any official information on this (other than "Matt said so" )? Perhaps I was misinformed or misunderstood.
