NOTHING I TRIED TO CALL DEALER AND THEY WERE NOT VERY HELPFUL. I THINK THEY FEEL IF THEY IGNORE PEOPLE THEY WON'T HAVE TO FIX OUR CARS.
DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK. ANTWERPEN DEALER SAID SOMETHING WAS DROPPED IN THERE AND THEY HAD TO CHARGE 600 TO REPLACE IT. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT THE CABLE WAS DEFECTIVE AND JEEP NO LONGER MADE IT AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SYSTEM. SINCE THEY MADE A DEFECTIVE PART AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY SHOULD FIX IT FOR FREE.
