Mr. Kahn, I typically don't respond with particulars on public forums but in this case I feel the need to recap the conversation that we had when I called you just now. There is nothing that we did to break your door handle while your vehicle was here as we simply performed a recall on the seat on your 10-year old vehicle, and used your door handle as it was intended to be used. Like I said, I would be happy to help you by having a look at your door handle for you, and even help with a discount on parts & labour to get your door handle repaired. That said, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from abusive language and yelling while communicating with our customer care team and service advisors. I understand you may feel frustrated but this kind of behavior does not help the situation. Please feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any further questions. Best regards, Ted Boyd General Manager 250-751-1168
