Description of the problem | I was parked in driveway when i went to open my drivers side door the silver handle broke right in half cut my hand but i just cleaned and bandaged my hand. I couldn't afford to fix it so i looked up the part . Its a $50 but they want $250 at the dealer. I finally got some money together and because it was winder and one tome the window was frozen and the door didn't close good when i got in so i had to stop and climb out of tbe car from the passengers side with a bad back too. Im disabled. It could have bern a dangerous situation but anyway i has to gather the money and fix it because i knew i couldn't continue to climb out the passanger side and with the handle broke and the cold weather causing the window to be frozen i had no choice. Everyone is right gmc should be responsible and we should be refunded our money and and issues we went thru. Its not a cheep car and this part is like made of plastic and its $50 and the dealer is ovr charging. Its all wrong. Im tired of chevy. I don't know why i bought this car. |
