no.

Cabelas entire diagnostic procedure consisted of backing off the trailer and driving it around awhile?

What did they charge you for the 1st time? If the charges didn't fix it & weren't for normal maintenance then they need to issue you a refund.

You would of thought they would have caught that when they performed the pre-delivery inspection and the running test before they delivered it to the customer. We lake test every new boat we deliver.But I understand the big corperate boat dealers mentallity I was employed by one of the biggest in the country for 7 years.That's why I went back to a family own dealership that still cares more about the customer than the monthly budget and the bottom dollar......OPTI
