The consumer experienced a problem with the air bag compartment in the dash. The air bag is lifting about one inch above the dash . The consumer feels that in case of an accident the air bags will not deploy. Owner contacted the manufacturer who says the repair will be the owner's expense.
The door hinge on drivers side busted and needs to be welded ,by no fault of mine. I have talked to auto body shops that have had to fix numerous doors on other Avengers. I think this should be looked into . I do not think I should have to pay for something that is clearly a defect. I would like to know where I can file a complaint because I think this is a real danger when your door on a vehicle does not work properly I will look into this matter more so anything you can do ,please contact me 570-829-6414.
Door power lock motor failed. Yh.
