NHTSA Complaint #10445620 — 2008 SCION TC

THE REAR HATCH HANDLE IS PART OF THE A PLASTIC MOLDING GARNISH THAT MATCHES THE COLOR OF THE CAR. THE MOLDING GARNISH THAT HAS THE READ HATCH HANDLE HAD ALL THE PLASTIC CLIPS THAT ATTACH IT TO THE TRUNK BREAK. SO THE PART IS BARLEY STAYING ON THE CAR NOW. I CALLED SCION AND WAS TOLD THAT MOLD AND TRIM PIECES ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND ARE ONLY COVERED FOR THE FIRST 12 MONTHS OR 12000 MILES FROM DATE OF PURCHASE. THIS WAS FROM THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE SCION DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY CAR. AND I BOUGHT THEIR PLATINUM WARRANTY (6 YEARS/100,000 MILES) WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK IN 2007. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS ONLY ABOUT 43,000 MILES AND I HAVE HAD IT JUST ABOUT 4.5 YEARS. *TR
