| Description of the problem | While driving to work on the florida turnpike, the hood kept vibrating. It look like the hood was lifting and would fly up. My brother looked at it but could not find what would cause the problem so he suggested i take it to the dealers. The dealer told me that it was just the way the hood worked and did nothing. The second time i reported the problem i threatened that if i got into an accident i would sue the company. This time they did take a look at the hood. They did something which resulted inless vibration, however at higher speeds and windy weather, i encounter the same problem . |
