Citroen dealer useless

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Chrisssssss........., Dec 2, 2005.

  1. I begrudgingly ordered a replacement key fob with remote from a North Wales
    main dealer at a total cost of around £95.
    They kindly phoned me a day later to say it was now in stock. I then
    double-checked that they had the code and the key to complete the job of
    programming the new key in. They confirmed they did and I booked the car in.
    I called today as arranged but was told they were busy so I'd have to wait
    half an hour. Not a problem. I walked around town for 30 minutes then
    returned.
    I was then told they did not have the transponder code!
    Not a word of apology.
    I had therefore wasted two hours in all.
    This should have been the simplest of operations for a main dealer.
    They charge excessive rates for an extremely shoddy service.

    Had the similar problem with a main Renault dealer and I wrote and complained
    to the main Renault HQ in Rickmansworth, Herts, and got a result from them.
    They even sent me a £100 service voucher as compensation for my time and
    trouble.
    Don't just take their crap service, complain to the main HQ in the UK and
    kick up a fuss!!

    AOL. I did that with Warners in Gloucester after they charged me because my
    headgasket blew within the warranty period due to a sludged up radiator. In
    the end I got 2 services and a free MOT out of them.
