car seat leather patches
How do I deal with my dealership? They sold me a car with damage to the interior.?
I recently purchased a brand new Acadia from GMC and on the day I picked it up from the dealership I noticed there was a tear in the leather in the backseat. I pointed it out to the dealer and they gave me an “OWE ME” slip to repair it. They want to just patch the leather, but there seems to be a complete flaw where the seat if getting caught in the seat belt clip, they’re refusing the replace the seat…how can I resolve this? (I’ve already reported them to GM’s corporate offices).
How do they deal with you, is a better question.
They didn’t sell you a car with a tear.
You BOUGHT a car with a tear.
If you didn’t accept the condition, you shouldn’t have taken it off the lot.
And, as it’s a new vehicle, they can fix it however they see fit. They do NOT have to repair it however you want.
They gave you a slip,and are going to fix it. Let them fix it.
And stop with complaining to their corporate offices. That’s an absolutely asinine thing to do.

How to Keep your Skin Looking Young
Skin Care and how to Keep it Looking young
Having been around skin care and make up most of my life, having been the daughter of a National Sales Director in Mary Kay for a mother, and make-up not only from Mary Kay but as well from many years of modeling.
The fist thing I want to start with is, never use soap. From my point of view, all soap.. It isn’t any good for your skin, hands but especially hair. Switch to a soft cream with Shea butter and NEVER NEVER EVER choose a product that contains Mineral Oil, Collegan, petroleum. These products clog your skin and make it impossible for your skin to get moisture through your pores. You might as well be using wax. Speaking of your pores.
You want to find a good line of products, that fits your budget as well as your needs. You’ll want a product that is natural if you can, and if not, make certain of the above as well as No Animal Testing.
Depending upon age and skin type, will determine the product that’s best for you, I can recommend many, just let me know your skin type and age and problem areas and I’ll be happy to suggest them. But what we want to have in our product line for our skin, consists of the following:
A good cream cleanser (they’re usaually quite concentrated so use sparingly) in the line that best suits your skin. And age. Dry, combination, oily, problem areas, dry patches, wrinkles, laugh lines, crows feet, all can be reduced right from the beginning depending upon the cleanser you choose.
Then you’ll want a good Toner. This cleans any residues left over from the pores and balances the skins ph balance as well as hue and tone.
Next you’ll want a good Wrinkle/Anti Aging serum, there are many miraculous ones on the market, some for around the eye as well, some not.
Next, a great eye cream. As the skin around the eyes is thinner, it cannot absorb many larger celled moisturizers that come in your everyday cream, causing a dark look or ever bruising around the eyes. Got dark circles around your eyes, stop using moisturizer around them, and simply pat a very gentle anti aging eye cream instead. Also, treating the darkness with slices of cucumbers still does the trick, or steak, if you like it that way.
Next you’ll need a good daytime moisturizer, I recommend one with at least a 25 proof SPF, also lightly tinted moisturizers are great for woman on the go who want a light glow to their skin without having to get into Foundation and then all that goes along with it, it’s your natural beauty you’re trying to bring out so enhance your best features.
Finally, an excellent night cream. This allows your skin to renew itself during the night, providing constant moisture so that when you awake it’s with a glow instead of dry, cracked and aged skin.
Now, in addition to the above mentioned products I must also recommend the following…..
An Exfoliant. One that’s gentle and that can be used a couple of times a week. If you don’t have an exfoliant, and money is tight, you can substitute an over the conter one with simple everday sugar cane. Take a small amount in your palm and gently mix with small amount of water, than scrub up and out on your cheeks area, side to side, on your chin and forhead, and down and out on your nose, and don’t forget your neck, scrub up and outward, AVOID the eye area. Do this no more than twice a week and NEVER on the same day that you MASK. These should be separated by two days generally or at least one. Monday Exfoliate, Tuesday nomal ruitine, next day Mask. Then next day, neither, and so on.
Finally, and obviously now. A Mask. I prefer a clay mask myself, but there are literally hundreds to choose from. Apply mask avoiding the eye area, again read the ingrediants, if it contains what we’ve mentioned, put it back and find another one. You let it sit about twenty minutes, until it is dry and itching you and you feel like you can’t go on another minute before you wash it off. By then take a washcloth that’s been soaking in hot water, sqeeze excess water and apply entire washcloth over your whole face. Pat down, and let rest there till it begins to cool. Then gently wipe away the mask, rinsing and patting it away gently, or rinsing directly from the sink.
After this step, apply your toner, dab off with cotton balls, your night serum, you night cream and your eye cream.
Your morning routine, wash face, toner, dab off, serum, day cream, eye cream, and voila! Your done.
You will notice a change in your skin within the first few weeks but especially a couple of months down the line, as stranger and friends begin to come up to you to tell you how young you look.
A good skin care regimen is a must for us Women, but don’t forget your husbands too. There are many great skin care lines for men, and you can make it fun, giving facials to one another. Every day, the polutants, poisons, chemicals, gases, dirt, grime and oil get into your skin. Simply washing your face with soap and some sort of cream at night simply cannot do the trick.
You spend hours waxing and washing your car, moisturizing it’s seats, having our leather shoes and jackets treated special, why would you not want to take care of your own skin as well… Even so… more importantly.
I know the thoughts of money, and the cost, and how you can’t afford it, but believe me, there are terrific products out there that won’t break the bank, as well as this simple fact. None of us are getting any younger, and only while your skin is in this good condition do you still have the chance to keep your skin looking young… forever. Start taking care of it now, and you’ll stay looking young for as long as you’re able.
Take care of your skin. It will take good care of you!
God Bless
