| Description of the problem | The vehicle had parked under the sun, without anyone inside it. The driver side headrest airbag was activated. We went to the dealer (garage isla verde) for warranty, we were informed that this is not covered by the warranty, besides being the first case of its kind, according to them. A week later the same thing happened to the headrest airbag on the passenger side. Again we were informed that the guarantee did not cover that issue. |
