Hi All,
My last post was about buying an old 850 diesel for economy reasons. I have had the car a week and the front wheel has fallen off!
Advice needed: The previous owner had the ball joint replaced by a garage 2 days before I bought it. But when the wheel came off (at walking pace thank god) there was no bolt holding the joint in place . How can this be? Can a bolt come loose? Was it ever put in?
I have rung the garage in question and so far there is no answer. So my dilemma is whether to have my own mechanic fix the car and send the bill to them, or just wait. I need it fixed asap so I can get to work you see .
Please give any legal advice you can think of!???!!?
Bloody 2nd hand cars!
