I'm glad it's fixed for you.
It seems that every manufacturer has quality issues like this. As a buyer in the market for my next one, I'm always interested in what the manufacturer has ultimately done to fix the issue. It seems like Alliance did better than most, albeit with some extra communications issues.
Going direct was probably better than inserting the dealer into the issue. That phone tag adds weeks and more problems than solutions.
