Please help me with an advice, I don’t know what to do :(
On the begging of the year 2009 I bought a vehicle RX 400h in States, and shipped it to Armenia (it’s a small country in South Caucasus if you don’t know:)). I was waiting for it for 3 months and at last it arrived :) . But to my great sorry I was very disappointed when I learned on the customs, that the steering wheel of the vehicle is damaged :( , even though before transportation no damages were fixed. At first I thought that the damage was caused while transportation and that shipping insurance will cover the expenses. But as I learned later “Lexus has recalled 9LC Certain 2007 GS 450h, 2006 2007 GS, IS and RX 400h vehicles to replace the electric power steering link (EPS) assembly”. The point is that I can’t send the car back, and also we have no Lexus Dealer Centre neither in Armenia nor in neighbor countries to replace the EPS assembly here. And now I don’t know what to do, I can’t drive the vehicle, I can’t repair it (it costs about 3000$), I can’t get insurance..... who can help me, and say what to do.....
Thanks in advance
