| Description of the problem | I want to complaint about the 3rd high mount brake light on my 07 volkswagen gti that i have one of the light out among the light and i try to replace the light in a volkswagen dealership and they said that they would not replace it because i only have one light out unless i need four light out which i think it is impossible to make all lights are out within the warranty period. I think think have responsibility to fix it because even though one light is out it already not out of the factory condition. I have no idea that they need to wait 4 lights are out to fixed it. Also i want to complain that the third brake light is impossible to replace it by yourself because it is mount inside the spoiler, therefore i think the dealership have responsibility to replace even though it charges. |
