Help Me Crush My Range Rover
Brian the Sn@il:
this day and age, whatever you buy and however much you spend, it still may throw up faults.
Take a look at the Ford GT owners !! :lol:
You can spend 150K on a car and it may still have faults. But if the Dealer Manufacturer sorts it out, thats fine.
Its deep stuff to come onto Mud Club saying your are planning to crush a Range Rover Sport because it has 3 faults, in fact its nearly laughable, and i'm surprised this thread has gone on for so long !
This really is pathetic.
Moneypit:
Had a similar problem with a different car, friday afternoon special.
I picked it up on Saturday on Sunday called out the assistance as bits started to fall off it.
It would spend friday night driving from Surrey to Yorkshire, Saturday at the dealers being repaired and Sunday driving back down to Surrey and developing a new fault.
Got the Manufacturer involved who came and inspected the vehicle and said yes it should be returned, but it is up to the dealer, not the manufacturer.
Spoke to a Barrister, who was my law lecturer about the legal resolution, goods unfit for purpose etc.
He replied, if this comes up in your exams that's the answer, but in real life, unlikely. Too big a precedent to set etc.
So I went to another dealer told them everything and took the best deal I could.
Lesson learnt, would never buy from that group of dealers or that make of car, and when asked by friends tell them what happened to me.
But I'm over it now, and despite Moneypit spending a lot of time in the Garage, she sems to be behaving herself at the mo, I love her to bits and will probably stay with LR for some time.
If you want to get the message to LR, put the details on a piece of paper, get it checked by lawyers and hire a billboard outside LR HQ to put it on.
But get the RR fixed and get rid if you don't want it and find something you do like.
Brian the Sn@il:
Thanks for the PM Hamster. Explaining things :)
I think that the Real problem here, is the support from Landrover and after sales care.
OK it may be second Owner, but its still under warranty, so LR should be looking after a Customer.
Customer satisfaction keeps business moving forward.
I bought a New car a couple of years back, it wasn't as good as i was expecting it to be, also it had loads of developing faults.
Dealer kept saying - They are all like that !
I got fed up in the end and part ex on and now own a Audi.
Still a few faults, that dealer cant / wont sort out.
But i'm just tired of it all now, I'm getting great service from my Nissan Dealer though :)
Hamster:
The entire service / support situation stinks with most manufacturers I guess.
The entire issue is frustrating - anyway lets see what comes back from my legal guys now. I am hoping this new correspondance will be the information I need.
James.Harwood:
If you are prepaired to throw 25K down the pan, pass it in my direction.
OR failing that give it to charity - Far to often the rich are prepaired to waste money just to show they have it!!!
