Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE WARNING LIGHT FOR THE BSD SYSIEM STARTED BLINKING ON AND OFF. THE NEXT MORNING IT STAYED ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER TWO HOURS THE SERVICE MAN CAME IN AND TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM BUT THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BEHIND THE REAR BUMPER. THEY WANTED ME TO PAY $150 TO REMOVE THE REAR BUMPER TO CHECK IT. HE SAID IF IT WAS A PROBLEM THERE I WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR AS IT WAS LIKELY MY FAULT. I REFUSED TO DO SO AS I FELT IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE WARANTY. I NO LONGER HAVE A FUNCTIONAL BLIND SIDE DETECTER. TO DETECT TRAFFIC IN MY DRIVER SIDE BLIND SPOT.
