DH and I bought a new (to us) car in July spending about 7k on it. Car was 6 years old but very low mileage of around 30k. The garage (big national chain) tried to sell us an extended 12 month warranty but we just accepted the free 3 months. Within 2 weeks of having the car an engine warning light came on and it went back to the garage for fixing. About a month later the same warning light comes on and back it goes to the garage and this time they say they have replaced the part. Today the light is back on along with two other lights and as previously has happened the engine has lost all power (although you can still drive the car) and we've parked it up ready to take to the garage on Monday.
So you can guess where I'm going with this. We have had the car almost 3 months, up until now all of these repairs have been covered under the warranty, come 2 weeks time the warranty expires. I'm worried that the same fault is going to keep happening and it's going to cost us a fortune when clearly right from the beginning something hasn't been right.
Can anyone advise?
