Plus, I also see if at times there the diagnostic work was actually done and not just fabricated for a good story in document forms.

As a IT professional for 35+ years before retiring, I was used to reading and producing documents that were constructed to inform a particular audience. I've also read my share that were constructed to obfuscate.

Agreed. fingers crossed it's solved.

For me it's getting used to my dealer versus a independent service shop. That certainly includes the differences in their respective service documents.

Over the last 2 weeks since the car's return from the 2nd dealer appointment I have experienced no issues. Replacement of the brake switch seems to have fixed the issue. The weather here in the Twin Cities area of MN has been incredibly mild this winter with record warmth and little precipitation, either snow or rain. Regardless, I have had 2 opportunities to drive during light snow and rain. No issues so far.
