Burnt out clutch 31 days after purchase from dealer

[Nicola92]

I've just got off the phone from a solicitor's.

 

 

They have re-iterated exactly what I have said above.

 

 

Under section 23 subsection 2b the dealer is required to replace the clutch and bear and costs of doing so including the collection of the un-driveable vehicle.

 

 

I have been advised to put this in writing to the dealer and give them one chance and once chance only to either come and collect the car and repair it, or agree to a local repair where I am.

 

 

If they fail to do either of the above I will simply commence legal proceedings and I cannot see them having a leg to stand on.

 

 

I suspect once I deliver an NIP on their doorstep they will cough up!
