| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The door latch handles (plastic) on the inside of both front doors have broken off during normal use. this is a safety hazard; if i'm in an accident that disables the power windows (battery failure) i will not be able to use the exterior handles, as i do now, and i will be trapped in the car. because the car warranty has expired the dealer said the failure is not covered and offered to replace them for $33 each, plus installation charges. the corporate "customer service" 800 number also denied coverage under the warranty and offered no other assistance. i see no purpose in replacing them with duplicates that will also break. *jb |
