Dear Service Manager,I am writing to formally notify Lookers Vauxhall Liverpool of two warranty faults affecting my brand new Vauxhall Frontera Electric, registration DG26KVT, delivered on 25 March 2026 via Carwow Leasey.The vehicle is held under a 24-month Personal Contract Hire agreement with Stellantis Financial Services, with myself as the registered keeper.FAULT 1 — 12V AUXILIARY BATTERY FAILUREOn 9 April 2026, the vehicle failed to start entirely. The symptoms were as follows:• No Vauxhall boot logo appeared on the driver display• All gear selector indicators (P, R, N, D) flashed simultaneously• The vehicle alarm activated without cause• An audible grinding/growling noise was produced from the motor area• The vehicle was completely immobilised despite the main traction battery being at 91% chargeI contacted RAC Vauxhall Assist, who attended and verbally diagnosed the fault as 12V auxiliary battery failure. I have requested the RAC technician’s written job sheet and will forward this to you upon receipt.This diagnosis is consistent with a known, documented weakness across Stellantis’s EV platform — including the Opel/Vauxhall Frontera Electric, Citroën ë-C3, and Fiat Grande Panda Electric — whereby the DC-DC converter does not independently maintain the 12V battery charge when the vehicle is not in Ready mode, causing the auxiliary battery to drain and the vehicle’s control modules to fail to complete their boot sequence.FAULT 2 — POWER-FOLDING WING MIRRORS FAILING TO UNFOLDSince delivery, the power-folding wing mirrors have intermittently failed to unfold when the vehicle is unlocked or placed in Drive mode. The only remedy is to stop the vehicle, cycle the ignition off and back on, and wait for the mirrors to unfold — an unacceptable safety concern on a vehicle of this ageCURRENT STATUS:I have booked the vehicle in for warranty repair with Eden Vauxhall Tilehurst (38–40 Portman Road, Reading, RG30 1JG) on 23 April 2026. I would ask that Lookers Liverpool confirm that Eden Vauxhall Tilehurst is authorised to carry out both warranty repairs on your behalf, and that the following is addressed during that visit:1. Replacement of the 12V auxiliary battery under manufacturer warranty2. Full diagnostic scan for any stored fault codes3. Investigation and rectification of the wing mirror folding fault4. Application of any available Stellantis software updates5. Written confirmation of all work carried out, fault codes found, and software versions appliedRESERVATION OF RIGHTSI am currently within the 30-day short-term right to reject period under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. I am not at this stage exercising that right, as I wish to give Lookers and Vauxhall the opportunity to remedy both faults. However, I require that you treat this correspondence as formal written notice of both defects within the statutory period, and I expressly reserve all rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.Please confirm receipt of this email and respond in writing within 5 business days.Yours sincerely,Logeswarane LakschiminadinMobile: 07538330277Vehicle details:Registration: DG26KVTModel: Vauxhall Frontera Electric GS 54kWh Extended RangeDelivery date: 25 March 2026PCH provider: Stellantis Financial ServicesBroker: Carwow LeaseyEden Vauxhall repair booking: 23 April 2026

Did not answer the 2 questions I asked. And did not reply to my reply!

I am extremely dissatisfied and disappointed with the quality of service and treatment I received upon my last visit for my yearly service on my vehicle.I have been coming to Lookers Liverpool for years and was happy to pay for everything to be done at the dealership for that extra peace of mind that everything will be done to a high standard and I won’t have any issues.This year however, the quality of service I received was absolutely horrendous from all points of view and from different members of staff that dealt with my booking.I have booked my car for my yearly service and MOT on 20/03/2026. I have left the car at the dealership for the day. Upon pick up, my servicing hasn’t been done and the only explanation I was given was that the booking must have been messed up, as it was only booked in for MOT. I would like to mention that I have the service plan that includes the yearly servicing as well as the MOT. The service came up on the MOT sheet I received as well. It was extremely obvious that my car needed servicing as well but it looks like somebody booked it in wrong and nobody else bothered to double check or modify.The only solution I had was to rebook my car for servicing the following week and just work around the inconvenience of not having the car for an extra day. Upon leaving the dealership I noticed a scratch on my car that is on the bonnet, on the part towards the windscreen. This definitely was not there beforehand and due to the positioning it is quite obvious that it occurred during my MOT.I have brought this up when I brought my car in the following week for servicing and the lady I dealt with at the service reception repeatedly insisted that they do not open bonnets during MOTs and that it cannot be from them. The document I received at the conclusion of my MOT clearly has a section called UNDER BONNET that includes various things that have been checked during the mot. I find it outrageous that this is either a case of being lied to my face or your front desk worker being absolutely clueless regarding a form that they do handle numerous times a day everyday. The reception staff only accepted to seek resolution for this with management when I showed her the checklist that clearly indicates that things were checked under the bonnet.The following monday, which is a week ago now I received a text to call into the office. I did and I was informed that the matter has been discussed with management and that Lookers will sort the scratch. I was told I will receive an email address where to send a picture of the scratch and that they will take care of repairing it. Up to this day, a week later, I never received a text or an email telling me where to send that picture, nor any further communication in relation to getting the matter fixed.Therefore here I find myself, 2 visits and 3 weeks later still chasing up resolution for what should have been a quick one day yearly mot and service. This whole issue was so unnecessary and badly managed and indicated dishonesty from multiple staff members. I understand accidents happen and I wouldn’t have minded being informed of this straight away and seeking a solution. However, the service worker who conducted the MOT did not bring this to my attention and the receptionist repeatedly lied insisting they don’t open bonnets for MOTs.Now after all this, I still find myself chasing up for something I was promised Lookers would fix. This whole incident and how it was managed was extremely disrespectful towards myself as a client, as well as my time. I have a busy schedule and having to constantly chase up and make multiple visits for something that should have been a one day yearly appointment is just beyond inconvenient and disappointing.

I am writing to make a formal complaint regarding the handling of my vehicle booking.My car was booked in for a service. During discussions with the dealership, an MOT was mentioned, and I made it clear that I did not want the MOT to be carried out at that time and that I would reschedule it, as my son’s 4th birthday was less than two days away and he is in Wales. I specifically explained this to the garage.Despite this, when I later attended the dealership, I was informed that the vehicle had in fact been MOT tested and had failed. This was extremely upsetting and inconvenient, particularly given that I had made my position clear in advance.I was then told by the dealership that a request had been submitted through OneLink for a hire car and that I should expect a call. However, when I contacted the RAC off road team the following day, I was informed that the dealership had not in fact made the request to the RAC for a hire vehicle. This left me without proper support and in a very difficult position.I am extremely unhappy with the fact that the MOT appears to have been carried out despite me saying I would reschedule it, the misinformation given to me about a hire vehicle request having been made, and the distress and inconvenience this caused.I would like a full explanation as to how this happened, who authorised the MOT, why I was told a hire car request had been made when it had not, and what steps will now be taken to resolve this matter.For context, I also experienced significant issues with this dealership last year when they had possession of my car for nearly six months. This history has added to my concern about the standard of service I have received.I would appreciate this complaint being treated seriously and responded to promptly.

What happenedMy vehicle broke down shortly after work was carried out on the fuel system by your dealership. When the vehicle was inspected, I was informed that the failure was caused by a part related to the work previously completed. This resulted in my car needing to be towed.Impact on meThe breakdown caused inconvenience, disruption, and additional unexpected costs. I had to arrange and pay for towing solely because the part that failed was linked to the work carried out by your team.Why I am raising thisYour staff have already acknowledged that the failure was caused by the work completed on the fuel system. As the breakdown and towing were a direct consequence of that failure, I believe the towing cost should be reimbursed.What I am requestingI am requesting a refund of the towing fee. This is a reasonable expectation given that the issue arose from work completed by the dealership and was not due to any action on my part.

I paid a deposit for a car I thought I wanted on the 10th March. I thought £250 for a used car deposit was shocking but I paid anyway as I liked the car. I ended up changing my mind and have asked for my deposit back several times. I’ve spoken to 2 employees at different times and I’m still waiting and am just being ignored currently. I’ve tried to be understanding but it’s become a joke now and it’s a lot of money.
