Rip Off!!
Our car went in for it's MOT yesterday. We knew there was a problem with the ABS warning light coming on occaisionally, and that it could fail the MOT because of that, so it had to be fixed. The garage MD rang up after they'd run a diagnostic test and said the ABS was fine, but the warning light was knackered.
"Fix the light ", said Dad.
"We can't do that, Ford don't do spare bits for the instrument console, so you'll need a new one".
"How much is that?"
"£350.00 plus vat".
"£350.00 quid for a bulb or dodgy connection, and you'll fail the car even though there's nothing wrong with the ABS?".
"Afraid so."
Am i missing something here? Total cost: £640.00!
