Angry Say What??

I heard one yesterday I thought I'd share with yall. A guy with a late model Benz breaks the plastic door hinge on the drivers side vanity mirror. Dealer says the door is not available, he has to buy the entire sunvisor. This is one with the garage door opener, microphone etc. Cost is $1200 plus tax!!

He should have told the dealer that the thing broke on its own. Then walked him over to a W126 and compared the current part to the old one. Obviously a defect in the material. Dang plastic parts these days

That's why I love the old cars.

The more they fancy up the gadgetry, the more things there are to break and cost you money!
