The rubbish line looks like exactly that. the first paired double quotes are
not matched by another such pair. In the context of your data, what does it
mean to have a doubled double-quote?

That replace call seems to change each double quote with exactly one double
quote.

Perhaps you just need to change each pair of double quotes with a single
double quote.
