  • Car Rejection during 30 days

    Hello,

    On the begging on November I have bought a car from the major dealership, 200 miles from where I live.

    The car is only 1 year old with a couple of thousand on the clock, price was close to £30k.
    I paid bank transfer with some on Credit card.

    I think it was a distance selling as I paid over the phone and went to collect the car. Unfortunately 14day cooling period has passed when I got Check Engine.

    I'm still within 30 days hence I would appreciate some help how to reject the car as I need to send a letter/email shortly.

    When the Check Engine light came on I emailed selling dealer, and been asked for book the car for warranty diagnostic with a dealer closer of my home.
    When I brought the car to the dealer the engine light was not present, however they have managed to get the error code from the car, and it appears there is a fault with the sensor.

    I have researched the issue and it appears there may be serious electrical problem with the car, and changing the sensor is the first step although likely will not fix it.
    And the error will keep coming back.

    The dealer who did the inspection doesnt have time to repair the car before my 30 days will pass.

    If the car drives ok, there is no error light but there is an intermittent issue with the car - do I have a ground for rejection please?

      Thank you for your reply.

      What is the best location to get a letter from please? I read somewhere that templates on the internet have technical mistakes.

        Hello,

        I have drafted a letter, if you dont mind could you please take a look. It can be downloaded in text file from link below

        I'm claiming that car is not in satisfactory quality as the car can still be driven. If I serve this letter am I able to drive the car until I have a response from Dealer or until its collected.

        EDIT. T&Cs says that they will collect the vehicle if rejection is exercised
