David I agree. Stop dancing with the factory tech & go higher up. The real question is....Is there a warranty or isn't there? Does it take lawyers involvment to get warranty satisfaction. I should hope not, but I know it's come to that before. I wonder if I put out a rebuild like that if the technical community would be so polite to me. I believe in asking the questions directly & dispassionately. Also asking the right people those questions is the correct protocol. Finding out who they are isn't that much of a mystery? I have a warranty issue with an L & My friend Eric Schandall said Bill Huse is the guy to talk to. However I placed a call to Bill Huse three weeks or more ago & still no return call. Try try again. Tomorrow. Dale Erwin Before you make Steinway's problem your problem, take it to a higher level. A service department tech is not necessarily in the position to give you the final yes or no on what they should be willing to do on warranty. All "fixes" at this point are compromises. You shouldn't have to do that on a new D, in my opinion. I don't recall exactly but doesn't this piano belong to an institution? Which dealer did they buy it from? The institutional department head involved in the purchase as well as the dealer should also be in the loop. You shouldn't allow yourself to be bullied into accepting anything less than a proper fix or replacement and the burden should not rest entirely on your shoulders. BTW, keep a record of all correspondence. David Love davidlovepianos at comcast.net www.davidlovepianos.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
