Ever wonder what the happens with your car at the dealership? Link to what happened at a Chevy dealer

The car owner dropped off his car at the Chevy dealership for some warranty work, but put the PDR (performance data recorder) in valet mode where it picks up audio. The fun began when the tech's started working on the car. They didn't do themselves any favors.

Also, there are some legal aspects to this regarding the recording of conversations, prompting this letter from Chevy:
