I got the run-a-round, really bad by the dealer...
If you remember: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=308102 ,
Well I just spoke with the Service manager and he tells me " Why did you not pick up your car yesterday?" me- huh you did not say anything about that other then it was raining and you were going to do the test drive after it stopped. So then the mindless fool goes no to say we ordered the wrong side seat (lumbar mechanism) me- But does the car have two? Him- well we did not realize... and as for the CV joint making any clicking sounds the mechanic found nothing wrong or heard no sounds. Me- so your telling me the loud clicking when I make turns is ok? Him- There should be no sound. The conversation goes on and getting worse he tells me that the suspension has nothing wrong with it in the D rear. Me- Are you kidding, just have the mechanic look at the car and ask himself why the wheel/tire is rubbing on the inside of the wheel well. Him- he did not see anything odd or wear marks.
At this point of the conversation, I asked him that my car would be ready by noon and I will take it to a dealer with a mechanic who has eyes. He was in shock that I said that and offered me to work with the mechanic to resolve the problems that I think the car has.
So I told him you are nearly 20 miles from my house and you have my only car, so its going to take me a while to get there (hinting that I need a ride)- nothing.
What a bunch of idiots, and I thought they has somewhat of a clue,
on me for thinking a dealer had the know how to fix any car.
Now I have to find a way to get my car, this sucks and is only making me wonder if it will be track safe on Nov 11th?????
so the only thing they fixed by replacing was the cat heat shield Oh and lubed the Drivers window...

I have about 6 hairs left after trying to comprehend what you just wrote.
Sorry for the poor engrish typing skills but I was a little
when I typed that. But now you know why I only have a few hairs left myself, dealing with people who have a title and actually know nothing make Homer go crazy!!!

I usually explain to a tech what my problem is and go for a drive with him. But those days will be over soon as my warrenty is just about up.
That's unusual that they would not offer you a ride.
