Focus ST
Had my car a few weeks now (3 to be exact), since picking it up I've gone back because the drivers rear shock was gone. Replaced under warrenty, nice. Then Sunday I was travelling from London to Birmingham. At a service station thought I should check the oil, basically I haven't since picking it up. Only to find that the was no oil even on the dipstick
.
Bought some oil from the garage, filled it up. The following day went to the local renault garage in Sutton Coldfield, they didn't want to know (read post under dealers). Eventually Renault in Enfield called them, got a mechanic to check it, he informed me that the head gasket has gone
.
Well I dropped it off said it would be ready for thursday, but your drivers front disc is badly corroded. To replace both disc and pads both sides £290. NOT COVERED under warrenty
.
This raises a few questions for me:
1) Was the 25 point check done before I bought the car??
2) Was the 25 point check done when I had the shocks fixed??
3) Warrenty doesn't cover general wear and tear, but this corrosion (cars only done 10,300 miles).
What should I do?? Complain or just pay for the dam brakes (over-rated that they are).
