I know it was under 100K but think it was over two years.  I'll dig
out the paperwork tonight and give you specifics tomorrow.  I do
remember that it took a lot of phone time, getting the regional
service manager to visit the dealer and hours of conversation with
the service manager.  If I remember, it ended costing the original
service manager his job.  This was all back in 87 and unless I pull
the paperwork together I won't get it right.  More tomorrow.
