| Description of the problem | Received recall notice on faulty valve springs and was told by dealer it would be at least one year before they could make the repair. This timeframe is unacceptable considering the risk of engine malfunction i am assuming while waiting. Why would you allow manufacturers to push out critical safety repairs that far out????? |
