I’ve had an awful experience with lookers in Ellesmere Port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bought a Vauxhall Grandland X 67 plate, and the oil light came on after 2 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

see another review for lookers vauxhall ellesmere port here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We bought a 1 year extended warranty, and the dealership said the car needs a new engine and they need to strip it to get it covered by the warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long delay…as need to get car up in the garage pit to take pictures for warranty.*<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I suspect they were trying to kill time so that we no longer had the right to ask for a refund within 30 days of purchase. Another unethical sales tactic I’ve seen this method used In my time in marketing, dragging out the returns for as long as possible to emotionally exhaust the stressed out customer. Which they definitely\u2002did accidentally (maybe) to my wife who was crying on the phone to them at least 3 times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, they’ve not replaced the engine, instead they’ve fixed the cam cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The belt issue is a known problem with this engine and other manufacturers did a full recall on there cars, but not vauxhall unfortunately. Fault therefore existed before we bought the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we can, apparently, no longer give the car back, as its outside the 14 day window they offer (although legally this is at least 30 days) although I believe yiu have 6 years to get compensation if garage sells a car with pre existing fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we’ve basically paid 11k for a car that’ll need a new engine within a year or two, at a cost of 5k to 8k according to the grandland forum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DO NOT BUY FROM LOOKERS VAUXHALL <\/p>\n\n\n\n

every man and his dog knows about the issue with the grandland x…but not my Mrs unfortunately (well, she does now).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
