need some advice please guys.
i took my Grand Vitara into a Suzuki main dealer because the engine management ligh was staying on and sometimes it went into get me home mode, it also has a pretty bad oil leak from the back of the engine. ( i should add that the problem and symptoms were described in great detail to the service manager when i dropped the car off )
Garage advised after "extensive" testing that the fuel pump was the cause of the problem and needed changing, i autherised this work on their say so and a new pump was fitted.
The service manager has just phoned me to say that after a test run, the engine management light has come back on again and he now thinks it's the ECU or throttle possition sensor.
He also says they could not find an oil leak, although the back of the engine is covered in oil and i have a big stain on the drive !!
He is charging me over £800 for works done even though the fault (s) have not been cured !
Do i have a legal right to pay by credit card, then cancell the payment as the works as advised by the dealer has not cured the problems and I'm basically left with a car with the same problems but £800 lighter !!
any legal advice welcome chaps.
yours in desperation
