Following a £175 payment, the vehicle was dispatched (after being informed that the earliest date for booking would be October 21st, but that it would be examined within 48 hours if picked up by recovery)!
Anyway, I got a call yesterday to let you know that a fault had been found—the DC to DC converter—and that the diagnostic test would cost £150. £1500 for labour, changes, etc. "Is this not a recall?" I enquired. They had a large number of vehicles experiencing the same problem and had recently received a large shipment of the necessary part, but the lady insisted it was in the United States and not England.
I will feel sorry for whomever answers the phone when I call if I find out later that this is a recall
Has this happened to anyone else?
