For the past year or so, we've also been getting calls from GM, letting us know that extended warranty on the Cavalier my Dad and I own is about to run out/has run out, and would we like to renew it? We keep telling them no. The called last Friday again.
CSR: *opening spiel, warranty, blah blah blah* "Do you know if LB or her father would like to renew it?"
Mom: "Oh, she doesn't have that car anymore, she traded it in last week."
