A commitment to future service excellence, including measures to prevent similar issues from recurring. I expect a response from you within [reasonable time frame, usually 10-14 days] of receiving this letter. Failing to adequately address my concerns will leave me no choice but to escalate the matter to the appropriate regulatory authorities, such as [mention consumer protection agencies, automotive boards, etc. relevant to North Carolina].
