The dealer wording was "5 year warranty", but yeah, it's a service agreement with a deductible, so it's like an insurance plan. I did read the contract and if there was a way to prove I did not put grease on the gear rails, I would have been covered. However, it looks like we are not going to need to replace the motors and gears, they are just going to clean them, thankfully.
It's not a schwintek, it is a "slim rack", it's on their website. They list 5 different types (Schwinteck, slim rack, above floor, fast track & through frame).
Yeah, after I got off the phone with LCI, I was armed with a lot more information. I was definitely not going to be replacing motors and I was going to bring it home and clean the gear teeth until they were spotless, ten I was going to lube the gear shafts, but the stealership is going to do it for a pretty good price.
