Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA SCION TC AND THE REAR HATCH BACK HANDLE JUST COMPLETELY CAME OFF. THE CAR HAS CLOSE TO 45000 MILES ON IT. I NEVER USE FORCE TO OPEN THE HATCH BACK, NEVER HAD ANY ISSUE WITH IT AT ALL. THEN LAST WEEK I SIMPLY WENT TO OPEN THE HATCH AND OFF CAME THE ENTIRE PANEL WITH THE HANDLE. IT WAS CRAZY I HAVE PICTURES OF IT JUST HANGING BY THE WIRES FOR THE BACK LIGHTS. I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THEY DENIED TO FIX EVEN WITH MY PLATINUM WARRANTY PACKAGE. I AM VERY UPSET I FEEL THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM. THE MANAGER AT THE DEALER EVEN SAID HE SEES THIS ALL THE TIME. I HAVE READ ON PLENTY OF WEBSITES THAT PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEM. PEOPLE HONK AT ME WHEN I DRIVE TO LET ME KNOW IT'S HANGING. RIGHT AFTER IT HAPPENED I GOT HONKED AT ON THE FREEWAY AND IT'S DISTRACTING TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. I REALLY WANT THIS TO BE RECALLED FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS. *TR
