can anyone help i am in dispute with a dealer about a repair to my my00
I have a £1000.00 deposit on a sti to be delivered on the 1-9-02 long delay due to special factory order with the same dealers
so i wondered if i could threaten them with returning my deposit if they dont resolve the dispute about my my00

X SOOOBY,
Deposits can always seem to be a sticky point. The dealer is oblidged to give you back your deposit unless they can prove that they have lost out financially by you cancelling
I can't see they would with an sti theyd sell those all day long
Better option would be to try to negotiate with them by saying
" I can't see the point in buying another car from you if you treat me like this"
take you business elsewhere theres lots of dealers looking for business but only so many people with £26000 to spend on an sti.
youre in the driving seat.
good luck

Just relised by your comment of in the country, i hadn't got in my profile where i was from. posting to check its there.
Remember the customer is always right until proven wrong. Well it should be something like that. Why not explain to them that you want to saty loyal to them and it would be a shame for them to loose your business. Over a warranty claim which they don't have to pay for.
My wife has a Grand Cherokee, there was some vibration from the front under braking took it into the garage and they replaced discs and pads ALL ROUND so it shows they have some lee-way
once again best of luck
let me know how you get on
cheers

Tell the dealer, in writing, that you're canceling the order and you want a full refund. Say it's because you have no confidence in their after sales service and you are going to reconsider your choice of vehicle and dealer.
When they refuse, ask for the MD's name, and write to him, threatening to contact IM and mention the possibility of legal action.
When he refuses, write to IM.
Subaru's sales are down 45%, the last thing they want to do is lose another sale.
Best of luck
