Hi Guys,
Had my C63 2013 for almost a month now.
a week in, I noticed a bad noise when reverseing on full lock and cold tyres etc.
The problem was reported to my local dealer, not the dealer I purchased the car from back in December and again on a visit begining of January.
Someone on here mentioned it would be tyres and that made sense to me.
Last Saturday, while out, I popped in to a tyre place I know and asked then to just check the tracking as a favour.
The tracking is way out, 10degrees 5 mins toe rear right and-1 degree 40 min camber. Front is right 0 degrees 25 mins and left is -0degrees 03 mins.
The outer edge of the front tyres has worn out and the tyre guy said they where scrap and why I have the steering noises. Back tyres well worn out too.
I have only done 500 miles in the car and to have to spend over £1000 on tyres would be dreadful. To say I spent £45K with them.
My local delear said its not warrenty and if I want it sorting, it will cost me about £1500. I have contacted the delear I bout the car off and they are looking in to it.
If the the delear I purchased it from tries to wash their hands of it, what rights or what can I do about it?
