SWMBO is taking delivery of her new lease vehicle shortly. Her existing Passat 2.0 Tdi, '07 with 115k miles, will be off to the auctions. Twice recently she has been left stranded on motorways with injector failure (or so the main dealer said after it was taken there on a recovery vehicle)and now the electronic handbrake fails intermitently.
My question is...does the lease company have to repair these known faults as the VW is just out of warranty, the repairing main dealer saying that all the injectors should be replaced?
If not, I would hate, as a private buyer, to purchase a vehicle with these 2 recurring faults.
Her new car is an Insignia CDti Ecoflex. She is not bothered in the slightest about the new car, as to her it is just a lump of metal to convey her around the motorway system at warp speeds! She does however, drool over XKR and DB9 Volante convertibles so the lass has taste!
