| Description of the problem | We had the front controls arms and rear toe links replaced in november 2018. Upon going to purchase new tires, the lf lower control arm w/ball joint were found to be defective and unsafe... We had them replaced immediately for safety reasons as the car is driven hundreds of miles a week and used 6 days a week and couldn't wait until an appointment could be made at the same dealership that replaced it originally. We were told if the dealership had done the repairs/replacement there would have been no charge because it was still under warrenty.... We are seeking a refund for the parts under the warrenty only... Not the entire bill which included the cost of 2 new tires that were a routine purchase.... The invoice is attached with the current work, the original warrenty work and the amount of $316. 93 is what we're seeking to be reimbursed for., not the total of $811. 34---the invoice is broken out for your review. |
