This may be of interest to some. When I purchased my S60T6 2011 on the 16th May from Derby Volvo we did the normal check to see if all was working but spotted a fault that the door locks keyless would not operate. We were there in Derby to pick up the S60 and would have thought that this problem would have been found. No problem as the Service Manager told me to take it into my local Volvo Dealer to get it fixed. It was picked up by TMS Volvo in Coventry who had ordered the parts after I had a check the previous Friday. The car was fixed and I let them keep it overnight to give them more time. It was completed. So the work is done and now comes the interesting bit Volvo Coventry were told by Volvo Warranty that this work was not covered by the Warranty and was the responsibility of the selling garage in Derby. Volvo Coventry were instructed by Volvo Derby to get on with the work. I received a telephone call saying that until the bill was paid they would not release the car. Volvo asked for BACs payment from Volvo Derby which was promptly paid and I received my S60T6 back at 16.30hrs with all work done and some new silver wing mirror cases.
What I have learnt from buying at distance that for the first 30days the responsibility for any faults remain with the selling Garage (new one on me)
I was also very surprised at the repairs for a new keyless entry system consists of new handles all round and new wiring. The Cost a staggering!!!!!!
£2000.00
Great service from TMS Coventry and Derby Volvo (Bristol Street Motors)
