It's not much of a complaint, but still...

[Spiffy McMoron]

I don't post much on Sucky Customers, because most of my customers don't, in fact, suck. Most of the people who call me up in the parts department are either fellow professionals or experienced do-it-yourselfers. However, I do get the occasional curveball that makes me look at the sky. An example:

Me: Da-De-O Dodge Parts, Spiffy speaking
Caller: Hi. I dumped my significant other, and he/she stole the keys to my 2001 Blazer. Can you help me?
Me: Your Chevrolet Blazer?
Caller: Yeah! Can you cut me a new set of keys?
Me: ...
Caller: ...
Me: Uh, a set of Chrysler keys won't do much good when it comes to starting your Chevy. You'll have to call a Chev dealer.
Caller: Oh. *click*

*Sigh*

The stupid is strong with that one.

You know... I just got a new key cut for my car (the old key is worn to hell and bent), and it is surprising, but not really, how easy it is to get a key cut.

^-.-^

Me: Uh, a set of Chrysler keys won't do much good when it comes to starting your Chevy. You'll have to call a Chev dealer.

But a key is a key, isn't it? Can't you just pop out the lock, rekey it, and make new ones? Can't be THAT hard? <---Is honestly how I expected the call to go from there.

The key may let you into the vehicle, but may not start it. Since most keys are now microchipped. Unless you have an older vehicle.

I get alot of key returns at the hardware store because they try to use them to start their 2009 model vehicle
