Car company liability: Your legal rights

Questioner

Last week our car had a minor service and we could pick it up again on Friday. The reason for taking the car to the garage was because the heater was no longer getting warm and the fan of the engine was running continuously. This problem was solved together with some other minor repairs such as a broken light etc. The car also had an MOT. Before this, the car had been to the garage several times because there was a problem, which later turned out, with switching from petrol to LPG. Saturday around 18:00 while driving home the car filled up with gas (car runs on LPG). The fire brigade was also called here and a check-up visit to the hospital. Now my question is whether I can hold the car dealer liable for negligence.

In any case, it seems that the garage did not repair the car properly. So you can demand that the garage repair the car properly. In addition, if you have suffered damage, you can try to recover that damage from the garage.
