Warrenty ?

Post by tatooine315 »

Hello some of you might have read I have just purchased a Vibe...Well it was pre-owned with 29000 miles...I LOVE IT!!!! Well it was a rental car and is in TIP TOP condition.....With factory warrenty still on it...Well when I bought it I used CARFAX, Checked it from top to bottom..Well after having it for a week and a half..I noticed there was very minor Damage to the rear bumber but you really cannot see it...unless you really look there is a crack where the bumber meets the body about a half an inch...The cladding is buetifull except for this...Do any of you think this is covered by the factory warrenty??? I will also ask my brother since he is a dealer mechanic for a huge GM Toyota, dealer in San Antonio, Tx. He works on MATRIX's and all other types of cars...so he may know..Thanks for all your help....I really appreciate this since I have not have had a new car like in 6 years...THANKS! RS

If the bumper is cracked, then it probably happened when someone backed into something, which is not covered by warranty.unless you could somehow prove that the crack resulted from a manufacturing defect, but that seems unlikely.
