Marin warranty issues?

Its common knowledge around here that steel Bianchi's have the best
warranty.

Hello,

A local bike shop told me they don't sell Marin
bicycles because of problems getting them serviced
or somesuch. Yet, my local outdoor store has them
on sale.

This is off-topic for this group.

Try news:rec.bicycles.misc for this, or even news:rec.bicycles.tech
where the techies hang out although it would be slightly off-topic for
them as well.

How can I evaluate claims of warranty issues
with a bike maker? If the product were a computer,
I'd know which magazine PC World has a yearly roundup
of users' experiences. If the company were an
online retailer, I'd know the website resellerratings.com
to go to for consumer reviews...

But for bike manufacturers, where is there a
site for surveys, polls, etc of consumer problems?

Thanks...
