I reviewed DT response and unfortunately that is not how the phone conversation wentWhen I called I advised I had 2concernsThe one concern being the blue fluid coming inside the car on the front passenger side floorThe other being the leak on the DRIVERS side in the WINDOW area2DIFFERENT areas of the car! $being credited to my account is not going to stop the rain coming in my car every time it rains and the damaged clothes I have along with trying to navigate my car while dodging rain splashes! ! This needs to be fixed! I will get the passenger side floor leak looked at but I still meed the driver side leak looked at and repaired too! The fact that DT sold me a car for way too much than its worth with this kind of damage is fraud at its best! !
