Recall question about loaner car

[airmanhoward]

So I went to Infiniti of Clearwater to schedule my airbag recall. I was inquiring on what car was I going to get for a loaner. The guy states a Ford fiesta. Wtf I was so pissed. What have you fellas been getting as far as a loaner. 2006 m35x

Most get an Infiniti. It's really up that dealer. If they don't have enough loaners for this recall they will probably outsource rentals to 3rd parties and pay the cheapest possible amount.

Definitely not doing a fiesta I will try another dealership or wait. I really want to test a Q out

Kearny Mesa Infiniti here in San Diego goes through Enterprise. They were out of economy cars so I was given a Hyundai Elantra which is considered their Intermediate.

Dealer ripped my dash by accident, so gave me a new Q50 3.0t. 5 weeks now, but enjoying the Q50. Thinking about getting a new Red Sport.

Lauderdale Infiniti usually gives me an M37 or Q50. I have gotten a Q70 but it's pretty much a newer M - just slightly less cabin room than my 09.
Seems after 2010 they made the M37 and Q70's slightly smaller. Seems to be less roomy side to side unless I imagined that. At my most recent visit, he was out of loaners so they use Enterprise and they gave me a Nissan Rogue. Definitely NOT in the same postal code as any Infiniti SUV, but not a bad car at if I'm honest.

I canceled my appointment. I'm going to call Infiniti of Tampa and inquire. Putting me in a Ford fiesta is a slap in the face.

Infiniti of Clearwater? I live there and haven't heard of that. Do you mean Lokey Infiniti? I went there, got a chevy rental :/ but it was an equinox.. I demanded an SUV or large from Lokey because I said I needed to drive ppl/family around in my replacement, since I did so in my Infiniti. They obliged

[airmanhoward]

Ha yep I ment lokey sorry.

Good job making that assumption about my character but I do think it's fair to say to them that I need a vehicle big enough to transport my usual people around. Ford Fiesta would not do it. And being that I went to the same dealer, they probably would have done the lowest cost option for me as well, because they are doing enterprise rentals. I'm no BMW driver, and don't care the quality of car they give me, just needed one big enough. (Can't say I would not have liked a dealer loaner though )

Have a nice day

My point exactly. I have a 4 month old a fiesta inst cutting it. The car seat, stroller and other things I have on a daily basis. I was super busy today at work I will try Infiniti of Tampa tomorrow.

[Ilya]

Let's all simmer down.

[airmanhoward]

Size matters to me when It comes to the comfort of my family.
