Tesoro Update 7/19/2019

Sharing from another site. Guy got a call from Vince Gifford and he needed to confirm my address to ship my repaired compadre back to me. I sent in my compadre, I think it was last October, for warranty work. Then, two days later I read that they had laid off all their employees. Hadn't heard a thing since and wasn't overly distraught since I hardly ever use the compadre and I had a new equinox. But, out of the blue yesterday Vince calls and says he put a new disc pot and a new coil on my compadre and is sending it home. So if anyone else here had shipped one for warranty work and thought they might never get it back because the company went under there's still hope. It seems he's still working on making good on all the warranty claims as long as they were made before they decided to call it quits. I'm actually now looking forward to getting that little compadre back! I never did use it a whole lot, but it has found me two gold rings.

Very interesting--thanks for posting that info.

That was me. I'm happy I'm getting my compadre back! A big thanks to Vince Gifford!

Dig-a-holic, Congrat's to you on getting your Compadre back repaired, and Well Done to Tesoro in honoring their warranty work. I still hope someone will step up and jumpstart and revive this company. We'll keep our fingers crossed.

It was NCtoad's Compadre who commented above you.

Glad to see Tesoro is at the very least honoring the warranty work they have on hand. I really would like to see them start up again but I guess that’s wishful thinking.
