Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR THE DRIVER SIDE TAIL LIGHT BULB TO BE REPLACED TWICE. BULB REPLACEMENT ONLY FIXES THE PROBLEM FOR 2 TO 3 DAYS. THERE IS SOME TYPE OF SHORT AND I KEEP GETTING HIT WITH A SERVICE CHARGE EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE GOES IN FOR THIS. ALSO THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS SHOWING SOME BEYOND NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR FOR A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 25K. THE LEATHER SEATING SURFACE IS TEARING AT THE SEAMS AND APPEARS TO BE OF VERY THIN MATERIALS IN THE BOLSTER AREA. *NLM
