📢 Statement from Dr. Tracey Bond:

"This isn't just a malfunctioning SUV — it's an insult to elite consumers who buy in good faith. I was denied direct support, forced into evasive chatbot loops, and silenced when I tried to document my experience. Their so-called 'certification' process feels like a polished trap. Time is a priceless currency — and I've spent enough."
