Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: For the past year my vehicle 2002 dodge neon has been releasing water, i assumed it was from the rain but i was not sure were it was coming from. it had wet spots at all times on the floor, back seats, and trunk. i had to leave the windows open very often for it to keep dry. unfortunately, i started noticing mold was building up on the floor, trunk, and seats of my vehicle so i started getting concerned. therefore i had some one help me look at the car, we started uncovering the car by removing the plastic cover on the inside of the vehicle and carpeting of the trunk. we found some severe mold when we removed everything. we established the water was coming from several water leaks on the manufacturer rear lights (both). the seal around the lights, which are the manufacturers, was completely ineffective. the seal is not stopping the water at all from leaking into the car. no parts have been replaced, i just cleaned it completely to remove the mold. apart from that, i have left my vehicle the way it is. i just removed the carpeting from he trunk and plan on taking the car to the dealership and claim this to be replaced at no charge because i feel this is not part of a maintenance a consumer should be liable for. *ak |
