Deja vu? Reread your thread of yesterday. Excessive overfill & bubbles are bad. Drain it.
Do it yourself, go to a quick-change oil emporium, go back to the dealer, whatever.
You are talking a few dollars worth of oil vs. possible engine damage. Drain it and refill. If you want to get into an 'elimination' contest with the dealer, measure how much you drained. If it's 2-3 quarts more than it should be, tell them, tell others, and change dealers.
BTW: If you don't want to believe the advice of folks like Jeff, ExTTreme, JimTT, etc, that's you're decision. Personally, I think they're giving good advice.
