“The doors are stuck loocked and it is a factory defect. The company is responsible for fixing them but, are they responsible for fixing the hood latch cable that was broke in the process of tryingto get into the car to find out why the doors would not unlock. Also, the seat belts are defected as well. Is the company required to fix them as well? Please let me know what to look for to be fixed when I take it to the dealership. Thank-you.”
