  1. Hi all I bought a second hand van back in september 2012 and was given a 3 month warrenty There were a few things that the salesman said he would put wright (BALD SPARE TYRE/SIDE LOADING DOOR DENTED and not closing correctly ect) before i collected it in a week as they needed this time to run it through the workshop On collection the only thing that had been done was the spare tyre replaced I agreed to take the van and bring it back at a later date as i needed it for work as i had traded my old van in for this one In december the van battery went flat and i had to call out the breakdown to get me going I called the garage and they told me to take it bake and they would repair it and do all the other things that were meant to be done before collection So i did this and got a phone call that it was ready for collection On collection all they had done was fit a new battery A few days later again the van refused to start and call out breakdown again and was told it was a bad earth to the engine I rang the garage and again they said they would find a slot to book it in I explained that the warranty was getting close to expireing but they said that was ok they would still do it I wated til the jan and had,nt heard nothing so rang and asked what was happeng as ive not been able to use the van since december and that they would now have to collect the van as i can no longer get it started i also asked for my money back but was told this was not an option as they do not give refunds Im still waiting for their phone call and just wonered where i stand I just want my money back now so i can buy something more reliable as im loosing work daily The van cost me £5000 plus £400 for my old van Could i take this to a small claims court? Thanks in advance
  2. Hi all, I'm new to this so please bear with me! About three months ago I bought an LDV Maxus (from a dealer an hour and a half away from my home) 90,000 miles and FSH, It had a worn thrust bearing which the dealer said they would sort out, and for an extra £100 change the clutch plate and slave cylinder. One week later I pick it up “We’ll post you the service history” off I go. One week later and problems start Heater stops working Speedo reads 2F8287 miles (fault code?) Bonnet opens on its own Passenger door will not lock Clutch pedal gone soft It goes back and they loan me a transit “We’ll call you” Two days pass nothing. I call them “We’re waiting parts. We’ll call you later today.” Two more days and I phone and get the same response! An entire month goes past with the same thing (I’ve been so busy working I don’t really have time to be chasing) I asked my other half to give them a ring. A few stern words and it’s ready! Arrive and they bring it round. It turns out it was the ECU that needed replacing to fix the door lock! “I’ll show you the bill I’ve got for that” the guy says. I get it and the clutch is biting just off the floor and the speedo still says 2F something. I tell them and the bloke gets really grumpy comes and talks a load of crap, keeps going on about how “trivial” the problems are and tells me the clutch is fine and they are waiting for LDV to call them to tell them how to fix the speedo. Then he bleeds the clutch (By pumping it with the nipple closed so that the pressure builds up and the clutch works okay! I was doing that a month before just to get around!) . “There you go. If it goes again you just call me. Don’t talk to anyone but me.” So angry I’m worried what I might say/do off I go. I get home and the bonnet is open!!!! So all they have done in FOUR WEEKS is the door lock and heater. As I’ve said I’m busy so I left it a few weeks and guess what? The slave cylinder is dropping fluid all over the place and the speedo now says 360864 ?????????? and still no service history. I’ve taken it back again (this time they have given me a VW caddy, not good for carpet fitting!) and they have changed the slave cylinder but when I asked what they would do about the speedo I was told “We were only sorting the clutch, I’ll phone and find out about that” I don’t know what to do now, any advice please???
