So similar story to all the other ones here, car ordered in Jan 21, 4dr Black Diamond, October build, delivered early November, car has 1700 miles - Driving in a highway, racket starts, manage to pull over, wouldn't restart.
Dealer called, dropped valve, engine replacement needed.
I was on the road, so car is at a dealer about 30 miles from my house, that has been very nice, but i don't know at all.
So what are the options that people have been following? I did place a call to Customer Service, but they will take a few days to follow up.
I have owned a lot of cars, and this has never happened to me before - so advise welcome.
Thanks

UPDATE 3/11
so it has been about 2 months. Some of it waiting for the engine, some of it waiting for shop availability. Overall the dealer service people have been great. Engine finally went in today,should be done by next week. Have not checked on time for repair,at this stage rather they take their time and get it right. Will report again once in my hands. Below some pics of engine bay empty, replacement engine and back in the bay.
there is always hope.
