PPI at another location. Friends or not. If they missed a battery, What else did they miss. |

I would have them replace the battery with an Optima orange top. The orange top has the reverse poles you need for a 348. Be nice but firm and FOA will make it right. Don't create a adversarial relationship because you want them as your friends in case something else goes wrong in the future. I suspect they just missed it while getting the car ready for delivery. I doubt FOA was worried about a $100 battery ! Anyone can make a mistake. As long as they stand by their product and make it right all should be well. |

Have them pay for a full inspection to verify its condition. They've already been caught in one lie... |

In the buyers agreement they had to put in a new battery. I got to the old one a few min ago. It is two years old at least. I am PISSED!!!! Other than going and getting a new batt, what would you do???

You do get a can of that run flat gunk. I was reading the label, and I was happy to see that the reccomended maximum speed was: 100MPH. That's good news  |

LOL, Matt. Glad my 328 has a jack, 'cause the wallet wouldn't cut it! |

The 348 doesn't come with a jack? What do they expect you to use? |

Dr. on the undertray there should be four spots marked with a "U" that is where you jack the car, this info should be in the OM. There is no jack that comes with the car. Who is Manuel? Is he a mechanic? You could also try the tech forum. |

Where do you find a jack for this thing, and also, where do you put it to lift the car??? I could not find anything in the Manuel. Thanks again, gotta change the Battery and I need to get to it!!! |
