Within the space of a year, Curtis Rogers has taken his 2015 Mazda BT-50 to McEnearney Quality Inc. (MQI) 11 times.
Angry and frustrated that MQI was refusing his request for a new vehicle, the 30-year-old picketed outside the car dealer’s Wildey, St Michael office yesterday morning for just over three hours.
Not even a decision by management of Republic Bank to ask Rogers to move his vehicle off its property could halt his efforts, as he parked it a short distance away, just outside Luther Thorne Memorial Primary School.
His protest, which saw him draping signs reading This Vehicle Is No Good over the vehicle, brought traffic to a crawl as motorists slowed to take notice.
Rogers told the MIDWEEK NATION the SUV, which he bought for $104 000 in May 2015, was still under a three-year warranty. (RB)
