Consumer Description

MY CAR IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING STARTER TROUBLE. MY MECHANIC HAS CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR THE PART AND THE GENTLEMAN THAT HER SPOKE WITH TOLD HIM THAT IT WAS A DESIGN FLAW. I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY FOR PRODUCT DEFECTS. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE DODGE DEALER TOLD HIM THAT STARTERS FOR DODGE ARE ON NATIONAL BACK-ORDER. OVER 350 ORDERS. THAT MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.PLEASE RESPOND.*AK
