I have on occasion used "Spot Shot" on stubborn stains on upholstery. It is a carpet cleaner but worked quite well on old stains. Be careful to test first if you do decide to try it. I have NOT tried it on the HHR interior so have zero idea how it would react. Worked fine on my Mazda that had a less polyester interior!

It's a new car...you don't really think that they expect us to modify it in any way do ya? Cheaping out on the light is just a subtle hint from Chevrolet telling us don't mess under there. Yea right...that's why they invented the drop light.

Well I brought in my HHR for some repairs today at 7:30 am.
The problems were the tranny seemed like it was shifting in high rpms, the radio popping and when I let go of the steering wheel, the HHR leans to the left.
They gave me a rental (2004 Malibu Maxx) for the day. They call me at 4pm to let me know its done. I ask the person on the phone what was wrong and she told me that they had to switch over the tires and that the transmission fluid was a little low and they couldn't find anything wrong with the radio.
So I go pick it up after sevice hours. I start it up and POP! Not only did the radio pop - it wasn't on and it was like it was stuck between stations. I hit the power button a couple of times and it turned on. Already I'm annoyed, I drive off to see how it rides. Still leaning to the left and still shifting at high rpms.
I have to waste my time again tomorrow during work to call my dealership.
Very, very annoyed!
