Hi All,
My friend has a R56 (November 2006 Registered), and has had major faults over the three months he has owned it.
The faults so far:
- Oxygen Converter in Exhaust - June 08
- Flywheel being changed - July 2008
- problem with the crankshaft - July 2008
- Clutch replaced - July 2008
- Already had 3 engine management lights
- Yesterday engine went on (after 10 minutes of being repaired) - car lost all power
The MINI has only 16k miles, and since he owned it he has done 2000 miles.
Now its been back to dealer four times to fix the faults, and most over the last two weeks. They cant identify the problem, and continue to re-build the engine and clutch / gearbox. Also prior to the faults, the car felt very slow. The car was bought MINI Cherished, through a franchised dealer.
So what is the process of rejecting the vehicle? Could he have a full refund due to only three months ownership?
Need some help on this, as will be speaking to the dealer principal today.
Cheers.
