## Narrative
THIS IS A CONTINUAL PROBLEM. WHENEVER WE HAVE THE REAR WINDOW DOWN, THERE IS A TERRIBLE ODOR THAT PERMEATES THE AUTOMOBILE.  IT MAKES ME NAUSEA AND GIVES ME TERRIBLE HEADACHES.  THE DEALER SAID WE SHOULD OPEN ONE OF THE SIDE WINDOWS.  I PUT A DATE, BECAUSE THE SITE WOULD NOT ACCEPT THIS UNLESS I DID.  *LA
