Hi everyone,
My w204 didn't come with parktronic so i got steelemate front + rear sensors fitted by Pro Park UK.
Next day noticed some issues:
1) the steering is making a squeaking/creaking noise when turning and feels a little stiffer. Almost as though the wiring loom for the front sensor switch is rubbing against the rack somewhere behind the dash.

2) the front senors make a high pitch squeal when the ignition goes from the 'on' position to ignition 'start'.
Seems like the senor unit gets a pump of extra voltage.

Contacted the fitter the next day and hes accepting no responsibility for this. Giving a host of excuses hes basically saying if he sees the car then hes going to charge.

I'm very unhappy with his service especially after paying £280 for this mess.

Any advice on the above issues please??
:wallbash:
 
How did you pay? If by credit card contact the card company.
 
hi,
Paid by debit card..
 
hi,
Paid by debit card..

Try your bank, some debit cards offer protection, they may be able to offer a charge back facility.

If not then write to the company by recorded delivery outlining the problems, give them a reasonable time period to inspect the car and to make good. Record the date, time and person to whom you spoke in any calls and keep it on a calm and civil footing from you part.

If you still get nowhere then the small claims court is an option.
