Your legal consumer rights when repairing your car

Do you need to repair your car but you want to know how your consumer rights are affected? With Diamond Motors and Salvage we have all the advice you could wish to know concerning your rights as stated by the law when fixing your vehicle. According to UK law you have various statutory rights that apply to owners of vehicles needing to undertake repairs. You can turn to the Sale of Goods Act to protect you if you've bought a car and if there is a glitch with the car after sale then your seller could have legal obligations to you as a buyer. If you visit a mechanic you are also protected by law according to the rules stated by the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982. It is relaxing to know that any motor repairs undertaken are done so with a 'reasonable' level of care and skill within what is considered a reasonable time and at a fair price.
