I had to pay $700 to have a door in my heater replaced because my warranty had ran out this problem is happening a lot and now they are placing metal doors in the heater instead of plastic so why hasn't this been recalled? I think I should be refunded my money since they figured out it is a malfunction of theirs. My seat belt also got stuck where my child's car seat sits so I had to get a new one put in. My interior lights also have a short in them.
