SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGES
THE HANDBRAKE HASN'T WORKED SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT THE FIRST RECOMMENDED SERVICE DATE (OIL CHANGE). AT THE TIME, I REPORTED THE FAILURE. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE HAD IT TO TWO DEALERS A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES OVER THIS NON-FUNCTIONING HAND BRAKE. BOTH DEALERS' SERVICE DEPARTMENTS HAVE REPLACED PARTS AND BOTH ADMIT IT'S STILL BROKEN, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. THE MANUFACTURER WEON'T HELP, SAYING IT'S A "DESIGN ISSUE" AND NOT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I HAVE COMPLETE NOTES ON ALL CONVERSATIONS AND COULD FAX THEM TO YOU. IT IS QUITE INVOLVED AND A REAL HORROR STORY. *AK
