I'm gonna go out on a limb and say...

#1 If you have a stock intake, check the plastic for warpage.
#2 If you have a K&N, then throw it away and go back to stock.

First off, give the dealer a chance to make it right. If they are not making any progress possibly take it to another dealer in your area. If you still are not getting anywhere I would look into what your states Lemon Law requirements are. I had mine for almost a year before I started the Lemon Law process. Good luck, hopefully the dealer can figure it out before you need to file the Lemon Law.
