| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I received a recall notice from yamaha regarding my 2002 warrior the first part of february. the recall was based on certain transmission components. i purchased my motorcycle 10/31/03 and because of winter riding conditions i was not able to ride as much as i like. however, my motorcycle has 350 miles on it. i took my motorcycle to the company i purchased from, san luis motor sports, san luis opisbo, ca. this occured january 24 as the transmission was making an odd noise. i hauled the motorcycle in the back of a truck 150 miles one way, left the motorcyle at the dealership. drove home for another 150 miles. drove back to the dealership on january 31 to get the motorcycle as the dealership could not find anything wrong. at this point i have driven 300 miles. on february 7, 2004 i againg hauled my bike to san luis motor sports. the service department did not know how long it would take to repair my motorcycle as they did not have any parts to replace with. they told me they would call once a week to give me an update. meanwhile, when the first replacement part arrived the service department put that part on a new floor model motorcycle. i have called the service department several times and was told someone would get back to me. i have called the yahama corporation and was told my motorcycle would be the first to be repaired. it is now march 14, 2004 i am paying for "a dead horse" paying insurance for said "dead horse" and have not received any compensation for the 600 miles i have driven to get my motorcycle repaired. how long must i wait before getting the quality results that i am entitled to? i feel i should be compensated for my lack of motorcycle, paying for something i do not have, and a motorcycle that i traded in. thank you for your help. william wildeman. *ak |
