Corvette Dealer in Columbia totally screwed me.

I did pick up the car today. They replaced the window and re-tinted the windows to match what I had before, and they did a full detailing of the car. They did complete the full service I requested also. The only thing they charged me for was parts, no labor. (Not for the window and tint, just for the servicing)
I do notice now that the driver side door handle doesn't work as it should. I have to play with it in order to get into the car. The passenger side works fine. I think something was damaged when they were messing with the door. I am going to take it somewhere else to have it looked at, once I get out of the school.
This was such a frustrating experience. Hopefully none of you ever have to deal with stupidity on this level.

To the OP, thanks for your honest & unselfish service to our country. I myself was a medic in the AR and understand that mishaps such as this tend to throw your plans off course.
But when you put your trust in a dealership who's suppose to be of the utmost in professionalism, it tarnishes the whole gamut of who's worthy of doing top notch work like they're suppose to be doing.

I would want to see the car at once. It would not be the first time that a dealer smashed a car and used a lame excuse to try and do the body work before the owner finds out. If it is only the window, it is a stupid inconvenience, if it is more than the window, you should know about it. It sounds like they know you are leaving town, so I wouldn't put anything past them.
Go look at it ASAP sounds really fishy, could be a lot more damage than just window.

Dealers use the vin number to cut keys, just had them make key for the hatch today, using the vin number, never gave them my keys.
Stupid dealership, not thinking.

If it were me I would try replacing the touchpad instead of the hassle of taking it to someone else

You can order the replacement touch pad for the door and replace it in less than five minutes. Both sides shipped to your door are probably less than $30.00 from Gene Culley at GMPartsHouse.
