Bought a secondhand Mazda6 on 13/10/2023 from a local facebook trader. On a two hour round trip the engine management light and oil pressure light came on last 30 mins of travel, I pulled over at the next services and waited 15 minutes. After restarting engine management light was present and i took it home cautiously. Engine light still present when starting.
Contacted seller on 26/10/2023 and requested a refund. After some back and forth messages referencing The Consumers Rights Act 2015, seller said he would only fix the issue and that he did not have the money to refund.
What would be the best steps here to take in this very fresh situation? I have saved all the current ads for his other vehicles and have facebook chat back and forth. I paid with debit card and wondered if with my evidence if they would honour a chargeback?
I not have confidence in the vehicle and therefore would like a straight refund rather than a repair.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
