Arie 'completely done' with fiets.com over lack of goodwill after premature electric motor failure

A customer named Arie is seeking compensation after the Bosch motor on his €3,000 e-bike failed after only three years and 6,500 kilometers. Despite the bike being well-maintained, the retailer, fiets.com, has offered little leniency because the official factory warranty has expired.
