No Oil Warning
I just purchased a 2015 Larson FX with a 135H.O. Etec. First trip to the water was a great success. Put about an hour on it. Second trip was not so good, 100 yards from the launch got the No Oil Warning and she shut down to safe mode. No problem, it's under warranty right? yea, right. Took it to the dealer, but not the one I bought the boat from. They cant seem to fix the problem, they keep throwing various parts on it and keep getting the same result. The first thing they discovered when servicing the motor was a hole in the main wiring harness. Their claim is the boat prepper did it. and guess what, NOT covered under warranty. That is a $1,300.00 part. So, long story. The service department has had my boat longer than I have, I've got 1.3 hours on the motor, and I'm on the hook for about $1,500.00 in repairs. How is this even possible? I paid for a "NEW" motor..not one in need of repairs. Is there any avenue with Evinrude for this kind of problem? is there any protection for the consumer? I feel like I'm being hung out to dry here. I had the boat for 4 days, the marina has had it 5 times that and counting...going on a month now. The place I bought the boat from (Leaders RPM) wont return my calls, emails, and when I call they just put me on hold and dont ever re-answer the phone. I've never been unprofessional, or been nasty in any way with them. Anyone have any GOOD advice? They are 3 hours away, so it's not possible to go camp at their store on a daily basis. I really dont want them working on it anyway, there were several issues with the boat when I took delivery, such as the 24V being wired incorrectly for the trolling motor, gauges not being hooked up, trailer wiring was poorly done, couldn't back up due to the brakes locking up. I resolved all of this myself because it wasn't worth a 3 hour drive, then again to pick it up. hopefully someone who knows how to work with Evinrude will see this and point me in the right direction??? HELP?????
