Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Car Ready for New OwnerFerrari Digest, Vol 34, Issue 13

Robert:
 
I wonder why FOA charged you for the time and parts to renew a part that  
they should have known would be included in the new, replacement assembly? 
This  seems like an error or lapse in communication between the parts counter 
and the  technician but I don't see why you should have been billed for this 
unnecessary  work.
 
Just my MNSHO, but that should be one of the benefits of going to a  
dealership for service. Their shop should know what is, and is not included in 
a  
replacement part assembly and should not be wasting time repairing parts 
that  will be replaced anyway. At a minimum, they should not be charging an 
owner for  what is essentially their error, either at the shop or parts counter.

several hours fixing the reservoir leak and repairing the damage done  by
brake fluid corrosion to the master cylinder; that work was  eventually
wasted because the booster 'assembly' comes with the booster,  master
cylinder and reservoir. So there was time spent that was redone so  to 
speak
