Remember someone looking for an attorney on the west coast?
But on the lighter side,don't dispair Greg Brown has a tool and insert method that fixes that problem caused by the impellor.There is a post about it here but I still don't know how to post links because I am technically inept.

It's sad what dealers will do these days. Very difficult to find a trustworthy mechanic, many will take your money and leave the car in worse condition.
Greg I hope you're able to make things right with the car.

They didn't make the pump...they just installed it. That pin you have pictured needs grease on it. Haven't seen anything they did that is wrong. The water pump certainly failed.
To get to the source of the issue, you need to get back to the builder of the pump. If it is a rebuilt unit from the factory, they same guy rebuilds them as used to rebuild Mark Anderson's pumps. Not many people using those pumps, right now....they were having issues of the impellers and pulleys falling off.....
And indeed, your block can be repaired!

We understand you are pissed, but please explain this calmly. You are saying that they did not do what their receipts say they did? What exactly did their receipts say they did?

Goodspeed, I personally am giving you only one more chance to explain this situation before I switch your channel off for good...
You keep posting that they killed your car without any explanation. Now you've posted pictures that don't make sense. I see a bored-out block but a water pump with intact metal blades. The two can't be related, at least not in a linear chronology. I do not know what the tensioner arm picture is supposed to be showing us.
They did the work but didn't? WTF is that supposed to mean, dude? What do you think they did or didn't do?
Those pictures suggest to me that the previous WP failed and bored out the block, then the WP was replaced with another that did NOT fail, but now you are seeing evidence of the previous failure and are pissed. One thing is for certain, though - that WP did NOT bore out that block.

Any picture of the face of the WP pump impeller to show any damage from block contact?
So did someone just take Dealership stationary and write up faux-receipts???
