| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving at a three way intersection my mini suddenly cut out and blocked traffic in all directions; so much so that people had to stop traffic and cars needed to be backed up to get my car in a secure place. this was due to a defective wiring harness. initial estimate for repair was $1200 parts and labor, but upon my complaint just labor was charged me - i feel neither is appropriate as this is a product issue, in my case a safety issue, and i should be reinstated to my pre-harness incidence at the product owner's expense. i further notice that there is a t.o. for this item and part of it states only replace at owner's complaint - in my case this was almost too late as i was in a very busy area when my car died and shut down three lanes of traffic. *jb |
