    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

    Sincerely,

    *************************t the engine randomly blew in less than 20 miles of them working on the engine. I have been advised that they most likely did something to it. Peterson *** has never offered to investigate the cause of the engine blowing, or even acted like they care that they ruined our perfectly good, well cared for vehicle that was in great shape with very low miles.

    Peterson *** Management team has been working with the client to come up with a resolution that would be satisfactory. After working with them, and discounting the overall price of the engine the customer agreed it was not an issue that we caused. The customer could see how it was an on-going issue that unfortunately happened after the repair was done the first time. Petersons and the customer came to an agreement on the replacement of the engine at a discounted price. We should have the repair completed mid-month and the customer back into their car.

    The sun roof on my 2023 X5 *** exploded, showering the interior of the vehicle with glass. The incident happened while driving on a clear road, no traffic and good conditions. I was covered with pieces of glass and if people were in the back seat they would've been injured. I have contacted Peterson, North ******* *** and filed a complaint with the National Highway and ****************************** My complaint with Peterson is as follows. They sold me a car. They sold me a warrantee. I have this problem yet the only role they're willing to play is for repair. They are not stepping in and communicating with North ******* *** about a problem for a vehicle they are selling. They have not asked for pictures from the incident. They are making no attempt to advocate for their customer. They will take my money but won't take responsibility for the product they're selling.

    **************** with our Service Director ******************* and went over the details of the issues he had with his sunroof.  Typically when a sunroof is broken it is caused by a rock or an outside influence.  It may not break right when struck by a rock but over time it can break after being chipped by a rock or debris.  We are more than happy to help you with the repair of your sunroof, unfortunately *** North American has informed ** that our customer would need to make an insurance claim to have it replaced because they cannot be responsible for outside influences.  We are more then happy to help you get the car repaired and back to you as soon as possible to minimize the inconvenience of not having your vehicle.  We appreciate you brining the car to us for repair and bringing your concerns to our attention to relay to *** NA.
