HJ was given the horror story of a car suffered total engine failure despite having all the stamps in the service book - engine failure at 30,000 mls and out of warranty.
Turns out the Ford Servicing dealer (not the supplying Ford dealer) had stamped the service book but in 30K miles had not changed the oil/filters................they had stamped the book and printed an invoice. Forensic examination showed there was no oil changes/filter changes.
HJ advised the owner to sue the "servicing garage" for the £7,000 repair bill.
Years ago there were stories of cars having the handbrake adjusted, washed and vacuumed and the service book stamped.................
How many of us have been fleeced over the years?
