Ann Arbor Honda Service Any Good??

Is the Ann Arbor Honda Dealership any good? I normally use local repair shops for maintenance, but I recently purchased a rare Honda, and I would prefer to use Honda service for it.

For reference, I have been ripped off, gaslighted, and lied to by Toyota of Ann Arbor, so if Ann Arbor Honda is anything like that, I'll pass. As it is, I will be driving to Dundee to get the software updated on my RAV4 because I don't want to deal with the crooks at Toyota of A2.

2021 Hybrid - 12V battery keeps dying - battery test says no problem

Took the car to a repair shop and they tested the battery. The amps were very close to the advertised amount, so they said it's good.

​

However, I have had to jump the car three times now in the past month. Car has 60K miles on it so I was really expecting it to be a worn out battery.

​

I'm trying to figure out trends, and I believe the battery drains significantly if I enter the car and don't start it(for example to grab something from the glovebox). If I come back later in the day, the battery is dead.

​

I've left the car for a few days without entering it, and the battery is all good.

​

Any ideas? I doubt it's the Verizon update issue, as this battery issue started very recently.

Composite core buildups - poor bonding strength to dentin

I'm still pretty new, but I've worked with a few dentists who have the following opinion on cores.

Composite does not bond well to dentin. How do you expect your core to stay on underneath your permanent crown when your temporary crown took a chunk or all of the core with it? As long as you have the required ferule 1.5 to 2 MM by 1mm thickness, have the lab add more material.

However, in dental school, we were taught that if you were removing decay, you should do a core buildup.
