Hello All,
In the current climate it is harder to come to a gentlemens agreement surrounding warranty as there is NO money in the market today, which means Dealers cannot risk a warranty rejection. Especially if they know they are working on a heavily modified vehicle!
A REVO custom map which increases horsepower by around 10-20% is pretty significant and is grounds to reject any warranty claim. You don't get 300hp + with just an intercooler and a few pretty pipes! ;-)
SEAT were not involved as they did not know about the incident until late on, by then it had been dealt with.
SEAT Dealers are privately owned and act in their own interest as long as they do not bring the brand into disrepute, the finance company is a seperate entity to SEAT UK. Unless the Dealer or the Customer ring SEAT UK, how can they get involved? - How can they know about it?
Whether the customer was "rushed " into a finance agreement or not....would you sign something without reading it? I know I cannot structurally alter my house without my mortgage companies permission - otherwise they can repossess it! I am sorry but ignorance is not an excuse!
I'm not fighting anyone's corner but people are quick to jump on the "my Dealer is rubbish" bandwagon..........sometimes it is right...sometimes it is wrong!
I don't think Dealer's start the relationship meaning to upset SEAT's customers!!
When you experience issues, do you complain constructively or vitto them FOREVER!!
If I were an Aftersales Manager, I would want to know why I upset my customer!
