Description of the problem | Driver's side door latch, cannot shut door, had to hold it driving to the dealership. Huge liability exposure. I understand there have been numerous safety recalls, but was told by service this vehicle not one of them? Excuse me, this is absolutely a safety issue. I have had several vehicles over the years, and never had this problem. Vehicle was bought certified used, we purchased best warranty, but this and a few other items not cover. I am appalled that something i consider a safety issue would not be covered. I work in the insurance industry as an adjuster. They want to charge us $482. 00 . . . |
