beware brain dead mokey works at huddersfield vw
« on: 02 September 2007, 14:45 »
took my edition 30 in for the oil filler cap replacing, and asked them to fix a rattle in the door. they fitted a new cap and fixed the rattle in the door, and also fixed a rattle near the radio for me they said. after realising that they had been for a 7 mile drive in my car to hear this rattle i then noticed the workmanship. all hell was let loose  :angry:








would you let this sh!t go?

No way, what a load of cr*p. I'd be asking to see the brand manager to see when he would be lending you his ED30 while they replace your trim.

I had two sets of alloys on different cars damaged there. They did repair them, but thats not the point when I take care of my car. Lets just say I now go else where.   :angry:

That is truely shocking BMX. :shocked:

It is definitely going to cost them a pretty penny to replace. Also ensure that the numpty who carried out the work comes and apologises personally - then kick him straight in the nuts  :evil:

My car has been in for the USB connection a few times (5 times so far), this is still ongoing with VW UK  :angry: . It has also had a new seat cover fitted. The leather had worn a little. I must admit that the dealer did it very promptly with no agrument. (Which they should.)

I have a colleague who has a passat. He took it to a Rotherham VW dealer complaining that the leather was wearing on the bolster. He had had the car from new for just over 6 months,they wouldn't change it at all, said it was wear and tear and that you can't claim, on warrenty, for the leather after six months  :shocked: :sick: Lets just say that he won't be buying a VW next time.  :cry:

I have had radios knicked that have caused less damage to the interior than that.  :sick:

Some people are just so clueless aren't they?  I mean, as if you aren't going to notice a big fecking gouge out of your radio/dash.  What a tw@t.  :rolleyes:

Hope you get it fixed mate.

know how you feel; my car went in for a new regulator and came back with a damaged interior handle which my girlfriend nearly cut herself on!! and you couldn't open the door from the inside!! Majorly cheesed off!

Hope you get it sorted :afro: i found that showing them the pics and threatning to have a standup arguement in front of a busy dealership meant my problem was sorted swiftly  :grin: :grin:

Shocking that fella.  The individual responsible should be brought to task by the dealership.

That is shocking, and a "testicles nailed to a tree" grade of offence!  :angry:

What really amazes me, it looks as though he was trying to pry out the head unit, which are actually bolted in place.

Trouble is, these days, people don't give a care in the world for other peoples property - when I was spannering, I'd treat my customers cars as though they were my own.
