Thumbs down Corsa Quality Control

Well I recieved my cat-back purchased throught the tbryne group purchase acouple weeks ago and didnt get the included hardware kit.Got that taken care of and went to have exhuast put on today ( I know I know just to busy to do it myself and it's about 95deg. in the shade with 110% humidity). Installer called and said the 2-1 pipe wasnt fully welded.He contacted corsa and they did offer to ship a new one out next day air but.....I dont think I want to drive around town like ricky red neck all weekend. Case and point why is the such a problem through out America with quality control?

I would take the GP price to your local dealership and have them match it in the future. This way you dont have the mailing back and forth and the other issues should something not be "right".

Corsa is a GM product. They sell and install them all day long where I live and will match prices with anyone whether local or internet. I usually go to GM parts direct site, print out the PN's and prices and buy fromthe dealership. I get GM parts direct price without GM Parts direct shipping costs. I do this with all my vehicles.
