you shouldn't have had to buy the warranty.

Thanks for the reply Raj. Where do I stand with the bits I have mentioned should they all be fixed? Or are such things as ARB bushes and battery expected and I should pay? |

You need to tell us more about this warranty, ( type, who etc etc ) and why you had to "buy" it.

Wasn't the car inspected by the garage before you bought it, surely these things should have been picked up and rectified. Normally things that are down to "wear and tear" are not covered, ( unless you have a specific warranty that does cover " wear and tear" items ). But this shouldn't even be part of the warranty seeing as it's happened so early on after being purchased. After all, it's not as if it's a couple of grands worth of car, is it. 2005 Vesuvius 1st edition ( now sadly gone ). |

Wear and tear. I wouldn't expect either the garage or warranty to pay for these unless it was specified as otherwise when sold.
Worth investigating for a battery drain. Would think the garage should cover this.
Possibly related?
I would think valve block/height sensor issue or a leak rather than the compressor itself.
Definitely think this should be covered by the garage.
In what way doesn't it work, just that it's stuck? Might also be put down to wear and tear but then, it could be considered unsafe so... Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 Auto HSE Zambezi Silver |

Yes had a full inspection apparently. I have been patient and have kept my words in a form of respect with the MD so far and been very thankful but I'm ready for telling them to keep the car and give me my money back as I don't need this of a car of such value. I've had another issue which I won't go in to too much but basically the car had been freshly wrapped and within the first week I noticed it starting to bubble on the bonnet and rear door so he took it back to the vehicle wrap place and when peeled off the lacquer came with it so the wrap place said its the garages fault as they knew there was an issue with the lacquer but the garage assured me the paint work was 100% so I am now having stories from the wrap place and the garage both telling me each other is telling lies. Anyway the garage has paid for the paint on the door and bonnet and then back but the wrap place said it was t good enough so has been taken way yet again to be painted once more, so basically I won't have my car for at least another week I've had enough and feel it isn't my problem I just want it sorting. |

I think I'd be telling them to take the car back and fully refund me, a decent garage would have spotted most, if not all, of the faults mentioned, and should certainly not involve the customer when dealing with a third party company about problems with the wrap on the car, they sort the problem and then go after the other company.

Basically I took out an extended warranty which gave me 15 month of cover which I was again assured was the best paying warranty company to be with |
