Word of advise...read your contract carefully so you're prepared to debate if necessary. They even tried to charge me a $300 deductible when my contract states that it's $100. Bottom line, they'll do whatever is necessary to cut their costs. Fortunately for me, i work in the media industry and i'm constantly reading and reviewing contracts.

Update: Returned the X to the dealer first thing this morning. After diagnosis, the SA said the SES light was due to the torque converter . He says, sometimes if the SES light appears after service, keep driving and it may clear itself. Anyhoo...all is clear and i'm glad to have Simone back (the X).
