Consumer Description

I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE RELATED TO THE ENGINE LIGHT ON 9/6/19 AND I WAS INFORM THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE THAT WAS NOT FIXABLE AND ITS RELATED TO THE OCCUPANS PROTECTION. A VERTICAL TRIM PIECE ON THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR DOORS, MAY MARGINALLY EXCEED A FEDERAL REQUIREMENT FOR AN UNBELTED COMPLIANCE TEST. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER THAT IN A SEVERE ACCIDENT, THIS COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY BECAUSE IN A ROLL OVER THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT WITHSTAND THE PRESSURE AND THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE WOULD BE PUSHED INTO THE CABIN OF THE CAR. I TRAVEL OVER 100 MILES DAILY AND WITH MY CHILDREN. MY COMMUTE IS MAINLY ON THE HIGHWAY AND I AM CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY. THERE IS NO REMEDY FOR THIS RECALL AT THIS TIME THEREFORE I WOULD LIKE A FULL REFUND OR A REPLACEMENT.
