I would have expected an e-mail or call from our educational rep, but it’s silence. They know exactly what we bought, so I’m a bit confused about their top priority.

My business rep seems to be on some kind of delay; they always contact me exactly two weeks after every announcement.

Yeah.. I mean Subaru found a way to email me about scheduling an appointment for the airbag recall. (Yes, I know its probably because of regulations)
