Default Dealer just called......left message...

he was letting me know my bike is ready after the service I just had completed........

I picked it up last Friday, should I be worried? lol

or should I go down to the dealership and insist they give me my bike, and let them scramble around looking for it?


Idiots.....

That would be hilarious.
Do you have the person's name who called you?
Go down there and ask for that person and tell them your there to get your bike.

Before we got married, my wife had a 2nd floor apartment and bought a new refrigerator from Sears.

It was delivered right on time, up to the second floor.

An hour later, a truck came with two more guys and another refrigerator.

She was honest and sent them on there way......but could've probably had 2 new refrigerators.

Maybe you could have 2 bikes?

heheheh, I have a service business with about 600 clients and I've made that mistake! Especially if the client has a common last name. Regardless OP, I'd probably just call them back and let them know about the mistake. Some other guy might be sitting by his phone right now, waiting for the call that YOU got.
