Consumer Description

IN SEPTEMBER, 2015 TOOK MY VEHICLE TO HOUSTON GREENWAY (3900 SOUTHWEST FREEWAY; HOUSTON, TEXAS 77027) FOR AN INSPECTION OF THE FUEL TANK (STRONG FUEL ODORS WERE DETECTED). THE INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE FUEL TANK REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. THE REPLACEMENT WORK WAS DONE AND I PAID FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. I RECENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MBUSA STATING THAT THE MBUSA HAD ELECTED TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE
