you are totally wrong, and you don’t understand the difference. Your axe analogy is ridiculous to compare to off roading in a stock off road vehicle. Last I checked the dealers don’t cover anything, the manufacturer does, the dealer gets paid for repairs. I am a manufacturers rep for multiple brands over the last 25 years.Oh, so I guess the giant mud puddle was in the middle of the road on the way to work and he didn’t intentionally go out of his way to drive through large mud puddles. Ignorance isn’t a defense. You should educate yourself on the fact that mud can and will destroy your vehicle BEFORE taking it out back and beating the brakes off it in a mud pit. It’s really not an apples to oranges comparison. He partook in an activity that had a high chance of damaging his vehicle. Just as if I was to swing an axe at my door. Just because you CAN doesn’t mean you SHOULD. To expect the dealer to cover your poor choice and misuse of your vehicle under warranty is unreasonable.
please don’t confuse insurance (your axe analogy) and warranty repair of a stock 4x4 off road vehicle driving in the mud and shorting out the alternator due to bad placement in an off-road vehicle that could easily get soaked in a simple rain storm. Again, this is absolutely a warranty / defective issue. I guess we should only drive our Jeep’s when it’s sunny, on asphalt and when the temps are between 60-80 degrees otherwise anything that breaks won’t be covered.
So if his rear windows leaking this is now void? His wandering steering gear box is now not covered? The broken glove box latch is void etc..... totally overboard reaction by this dealer
OP, please sue them!!!
