Recall repair work was performed on vehicle, consumer was charged $313.63 and repairs were half completed. Since it was a recall, the work performed was suppose to be free of charge. The dealer only performed half the work and left a broken part in the door which had to be removed by taking the door apart again. They refused to refund the $313.63 and repair the passenger side door which was part of the recall. They only fixed the driver door. Consumer would like the monies reimbursed plus an addition $313.63 for have the repairs completed at another dealer. The consumer also requested a life-time warranty on the work O'brien already did, $50. Per day for the two days the consumer had no vehicle, mailing and copying cost.

When window regulator fails, the window drops in the door. If driving in rain or -20 degrees weather, it becomes a safety hazard. I'd like to see a recall soon on this.
