I don't understand the massive disappointment here.
He did NOT know. That's what he's saying. He never knew and that is why he's upset. He merely wanted communication once the request was seen. Your second sentence doesn't even belong.

A Ghost cam tune with your cats installed will destroy them.
Research aside, if the request was seen, it should have been brought up to the customer. In my line of business, we don't make decisions for the customer (whether correct or opinionated). Instead we bring up our concerns with them about their inquiries and then go from there (Just like AM did with their post on this thread. ).

You should thank them for saving you some money and damage to your car

honestly I think the whole "ghost cam" thing is very ricer
Again. He was asking for communication.... not a failure-creating product.

This. I don't understand how hard that is to comprehend for some people.

Very very very very very well stated. This emphasizes the need for good communication between the vendor and the customer. Again, this is something that is severely lacking from some of the big-name vendors on this forum. I don't want to get on my soapbox again and hash that out.

Tell me about it Patrick. It boggles me how some people here put up with such terrible customer service... In fact, some people/customers defend this terrible customer service they've had with these vendors. It's ludicrous. My only thoughts are that they are just clueless in the first place and don't know any better.

What's even more sad though, is that it's these people/customers who "accept" this practice as "good" or "normal", and THAT'S why these vendors continue to flourish and stay in business.

The never ending wheel of mediocrity ... Lol

I dunno... My 12 steering wheel looks nothing like that 05 photo. I mean, is it like an Audi or MB steering wheel? No, but I think it's nice...

Premium 10-12s got the new leather wheel, base models got the old 05-09 base wheel. In 13 they added the leather as standard, along with HIDs.
