Mechanic Drove 25 Miles To Ascertain Fau - Lucian Deville
Hi

Took our car into the main dealer to have it looked over for a fault - pulling to the left, and I felt a clonking noise from the rear passenger or front passenger side.

Got the car back - driven 25 miles, and fault yet to be fixed, i.e 4 wheel tracking.

I felt the mileage was very high - took my car and as I was drving out as the dealer was closing, noted the trip meter had an additonal 25 mls clocked and radio was on quite high.

Any views, experiences and action I should take - I have no evidence re the mileage when I left the car at the main dealer, who is a franchised dealer.

Thanks in advance

LD

Perk of the job for dealer staff to use customer cars. Used to happen all the time (and I guess still does nowadays). They would normally choose something with a bit of performance.
