Consumer Description

THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING BLEW APART AND I WAS 75 MILES AWAY FROM HOME ON A SUNDAY. I REPLACED IT WITH AND 12 DAYS LATER IT BLEW APART AGAIN. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN A RELIABLE GARAGE NOW FOR 2 WEEKS AND THEY CAN'T GET THE PART. NO LOCAL DEALERS HAVE THE PART AND THE WAREHOUSE IS "OUT OF STOCK". I HAD A 7 YEAR OLD CHILD IN MY CAR. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL BY GM AND I INTEND TO GO AS FAR AS THE CEO IF I HAVE TO. THIS IS COSTING ME A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY TO RENT A CAR. I WANT MY MONEY BACK FROM GM ALONG WITH A LETTER OF APOLOGY. SHAME ON THEM. *TR
