SINCE JULY 2010 I HAD COMPLAINTS ABOUT AN INTERMITTENT RATTLE NEAR THE DRIVERS OUTSIDE MIRROR. I MADE AT LEAST TEN TRIPS TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS AND NOTHING SEEMED TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. DURING THE LAST TIME THE DOOR PANEL WAS REMOVED, ANOTHER FIX MADE AND A SUBSEQUENT ROAD TEST, THE NOISE WAS HEARD BY THE DEALERS MECHANIC. AFTER TIGHTENING SOME BOLTS WHEN IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE LEFT FENDER NEAR THE A PILLAR WAS LOOSE, THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED. DURING THE PROCESS OF REMOVING THIS WINDSHIELD, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS NEVER INSTALLED PROPERLY AT THE ASTON MARTIN FACTORY IN GAYDON, UK. THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT "PRIMER" APPLIED AND THIS MAJOR STRUCTURAL AND SAFETY COMPONENT WAS LITERALLY MOVING AROUND IN IT'S FRAME. SINCE THE NEW WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN INSTALLED THE ENTIRE VEHICLE FEELS AND SOUNDS MUCH TIGHTER. AFTER THE WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED PROPERLY, I ATTEMPTED TO SECURE SOME FORM OF RESTITUTION FROM ASTON MARTIN FOR ALL OF MY FRUSTRATIONS AN INCONVENIENCE WITH THIS ISSUE IN THE FO

I TOLD THEM THAT IN SUCH AN EXPENSIVE CAR FIRST I DON'T SUPPOSE TO HAVE SUCH A STRONG SMELL IN THE CAR AND SECOND EVEN IF IT FROM THE CLUTCH AS THEY SAY ITS NOT THE ONLY SMELL I FELT OF STRONG FUMES AND BURNING. UNTIL TODAY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE AND THEY SAY THERE IS NO FAULT FROM THEIR SIDE. SMELL COMES WHEN I ACCELERATE , WHEN I REVERSED AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE DRIVING WITH NO REASON . SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR I BECOME SICK , DOCTORS COULDN'T BE SURE OF THE REASON AND I DIDN'T RELATED IT TO THE CAR UNTIL I HAVE BEEN ON THE ER AFTER ITS OCCUR AND I COULDN'T BREATH AND HAD STRONG CHEST PAIN AND DIZZY.
