problem #3

Accord 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 47,848 miles
(1) & (2) red safety restraint system (SRS) light sporadically light on dash, within one month SRS light consistently on. Dealer discovered broken ground wire under driver's seat. The purpose of the ground wire is solely to transmit information from the seat belt to the SRS. (3) dealer repaired the broken wire and charged me $112.25. My request is for a refund in the amount of $112.25 because the repair as solely a safety repair and the diagnositc fee should not have been charged.
