To be able to pursue the creditor you would need to show the fault was present at the point of sale, you will need to arguably obtain expert evidence in the form of an expert report..
The car is 5 years old, so it is likely the other side will try and argue that faults are expected in a car of that age. It is probably one of the most tricky legal issues to deal with in consumer law really, defective vehicles are awkwardI work for Roach Pittis Solicitors. I give my free time available to helping other on the forum and would be happy to try and assist informally where needed.
