“Drivers side widow pops out while closing the door. Also the dealer installed a speedometer two years ago in may of 1998 for $400.00 cost to us which was'nt covered under warranty. I believe this is a safty issue and should be repaired at no cost to us. The speedometer failed again in december of 1999. Now the dealer is asking for another $500.00 (pre-paid) to correct the problem. I find this to be excessive. What can we do now?”
