Go-Ped GSR Sport Gas Powered City Scooter (Gloss Black)

After less than 3 months, the pull cord stopped working and the scooter won't start. Amazon is of NO help whatsoever. The manufacturer has offered to send a replacement part, but does not cover labor to repair. This is a horrible experience and I would stay away from buying this product and especially if there is no local dealer. Amazon's attitude is simply unacceptable.
UPDATE: after installing the new pull, the engine failed. The warranty is good for 90 days and so it cost me $200 to repair the engine, which was obviously defective at time of purchase. Goped's response to everything is that products are tested at the factory. Yeah .. I am sure every auto manufacturer also tests their products at the factory, but how many cars have warranty work done ... PLENTY. Enough .. Goped is not a trustworthy company and their retailer (Amazon) should be ashamed of leaving a customer in the air. AVOID THIS PRODUCT OR BUY YOURSELF AN EXPENSIVE HASSLE.
