This will leave out any question of unauthorized vehicle tampering by a 3rd party mechanic. If the authorized repair facility is unable to duplicate the problem then take it to another authorized repair facility of the same manufacturer. All authorized dealers of each manufacturer are required to repair a vehicle that has remaining factory warranty. However reluctant they may be if you did not purchase the car from their dealership; they are still required to do so. You may call the 800 customer service number in your owner's manual if you are not being accepted for service at the dealership.

This does not surprise me. New scooter buyers should stick with the major brands: Vespa, Buddy, Yamaha, and Honda and maybe a few others. There is too much risk with other brands. The cheaper price is not worth it. Best, Kyle Park http://www.motorized-scooters.net Good article. This does not surprise me.

If the dealer is unable to properly diagnose the problem any qualified mechanic can confirm that the defect exists. However, I would not have an outside mechanic perform any repairs to the vehicle because the manufacturer may claim that the outside mechanic caused damage to the vehicle which may not be cover under the warranty.

Doing the due diligence of documenting is so important. Do you find that it can be just any mechanic or is it better to have a dealership mechanic diagnose potential issues? Really good advice!
