No, the cautionary tale is that if the dealer doesn't give you satisfaction
you go to the manufacturer directly.

Steinway expects its dealers to gate-keep its warranty system like most
other piano manufacturers.  I was specifically instructed to contact the
dealer with the information.  I forwarded the information to the Dean's
office and they contacted their dealer.

 

Perhaps the cautionary tale is one of choosing your dealer carefully.

One  other thing.  It's a manufacturer's warranty, not a dealer warranty,
isn't it?  They should take it to Steinway directly.

I suggested that they make a warranty issue out of it.  The Steinway dealer
pretty much shut that one down.  It was selected at the factory so a swap
probably never was likely.  Although, I know NMSU did so under similar
circumstances.  There was a lot more political clout available there,
possibly a more supportive dealer too.
