i noticed my car was making a suspension groan.. then i noticed these red blocks on the front springs, my guess is they are shipping blocks? did the dealer forget to remove them during pre delivery? anyone?

How many miles? Not that you shouldn't raise **** but I can't imagine it would have caused any significant damage.

Also, give the tire pressures a check while you're at it. However you have probably already seen them in the DIC.

Wonder if the same dealerships that have been leaving them in are also dealerships that have been receiving Caprice orders. And if so, wonder how many Caprices are running around with these still in the front springs.

Sure hope this dealer plans on finishing up their dealer prep.....

Sitting out on the lot with the rear brake covers on. :WTF:

If this is the case then im sure the front blocks were left on as well.
