Review of SEAT UK


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Brake Discs OK said Perrys-Well not really!!

Took 18 plate Ibiza into Perrys Preston ( turned out it was Kia outlet ) for 12 month service and MOT. Have a Service plan, so nothing to pay unless faults found.
Picked up car. Passed MOT with no advisories. Service carried out. Vehicle health check advised front brake pads worn 70% and rear down to 3mm.Advised to replace both. Discs ticked ' green ' meaning OK.
Took to local garage for new pads.
They advised rear pads ' almost gone ' and needs new Discs- front and rear '.
IVO Perry's OK I went to inspect and was horrified to see state of rear pads-they were almost gone.All 4 discs were badly scored and did indeed need replacing immediatley.
Spoke to Service Mgr at Perry's who simply said technician did a visual inspection only!
When cars are serviced only every 12mths for a hefty fee I expect it to leave with a clean bill of helalth or a thorough inspection to sdvise all faults.
Perrys are a main dealer, not a 'back st garage'.
I'm appalled at their workmanship! They even suggested that in the 10 days since they had the car ( when it had done less than 50 extra miles), the pads and discs could have deteriorated!
I should have known better than to take it to Perrys since I took my Peugeot van away from Perrys Bolton having gotten fed up with their workmanship!
Cancelled the Service Plan, having now learnt my lesson. Will never go back to Perrys!
