I hope this email finds you well.I have bought a vehicle from Lookers Guildford dealership (Astolat Way, GU3 1NE) in May 2023. Reg LC23NMK.This vehicle was mis sold to me and as part of compensation some servicing was offered, which i accepted at the time. This also included air con regas at 2 years old.I have booked and had this appointment with the servicing team at the Lookers Guildford dealership (Astolat Way, GU3 1NE) on the 21st May 2025 at 10am.My car then needed another service and due to extremely poor service I have been receiving at your dealership, i went elsewhere. Service completed by another Authorized Skoda Service Partner, who discovered that the Aircon low pressure fill valve cap missing was missing and recommended replacement to stop contamination of valve and potentially damage to aircon system. They quoted £148.50 to fix this.I was shocked to hear and read this (evidence in video and pdf formats attached).I am disappointed (again) and inconvenienced (again). I expect this complaint to be dealt with promptly. At this stage my confidence in your dealership and servicing is completely lost, I am saddened by my perceived incompetence at every level and around every corner. I expect this to be rectified and ideally by another Authorized Skoda Service Partner of my choosing at no cost to me.I also request you consider transferring all items promised to my by Adrian Poole: "Please accept this email to confirm our Sales Department will cover the following First MOT (worth £54.85, due on year 3), First Brake fluid change worth £85 (Due at 3 years old) and air con regas £149 (due at 2 years old). The work must be carried out here at Skoda Guildford and this email must be presented to our Service Team" of which all of the items remain, to another Authorized Skoda Service Partner pf my choosing.I am eagerly waiting for your response, explanation, apology and granting my requests as above.Regards,

After a test drive, the sales executive undertook to search available stock for one in my desired specification and, if there was none suitable, provide a quote for a factory order. I heard nothing and when I followed up by email the response was to send me terms of business.

Dear Madam/Sir,I would like to register a formal complaint about the after sales lack of service from Zaheer Sumar.I bought my Skoda Scala - registration LF25FLG in April 2025 from him. After the sale, I had a few questions about the car and left numerous messages for him - he NEVER returned my calls.I was also given the wrong manual for the Skoda Scala and he entered my husband’s mobile number into the Skoda satellite navigation system which I would like removing and don’t know how to do this because I don’t have the correct manual.I would appreciate a call back for someone to visit me in Crowthorne to remove my husband’s mobile number from the satellite navigation system as well as bring me the correct manual for this Skoda Scala model.I look forward to your urgent response.Regards
