37 day Nightmare

My time with the car; 12 days driving with issues. 9 days spent in with Vertu resulting in a failed fix and presented with further serious engine, suspension & wheel problems. 16 days sitting on my driveway with No courtesy car. 54 emails exchanged. No like-for-like replacement offered. No contact from senior management and a constant feeling I was the problem. After 37 days ownership, the car was eventually returned and refunded. I chose Vertu to avoid this scenario. Purchasing from Vertu has been hugely stressful, frustrating, underwhelming and unprofessional. Questionable safety practices. Quite unbelievable.

Wasn’t that impressed with vertu Ford Birmingham, a £35k van arrived dirty covered in bird crap, the front indicators were burnt out not working, I emailed them telling the indicators are broke heard nothing and had to chase for two weeks just to get a shrug of the the shoulders and stated it was fords problem. Just expected some level of aftercare service.
Currently missed out 3 days work travelling back and forth to Ford getting it sorted, getting it repaired because of their negligence.

So would advice not paying up front on the vehicle your buying

We purchased a brand-new Ford Tourneo…Unacceptable service.

We purchased a brand-new Ford Tourneo 9-seater from Vertu Ford Birmingham on May 12th for our day centre (for adults with learning disabilities). This vehicle was supposed to be a lifeline for our service users to get to the centre and go on trips.

Instead, it has been a complete nightmare. On collection, we were told there was an issue with the battery but once driven it would be rectified, within 2 weeks it developed severe electrical faults and has been sitting in their workshop since June 1st. Two separate Ford Assist engineers confirmed there was an underlying electrical defect. Since then, they have replaced the battery, the sensor, and the Body Control Module (BCM)—and the vehicle is still completely broken.

We have now been told the next replacement part is on back-order until August. If that part doesn't work, what then? We are paying over £640 a month for a brand-new vehicle we only got to drive for two weeks, while being forced to deal with endless delays. While the dealership provided us with a courtesy vehicle, this is not our van. It is not the brand-new asset we purchased, and it does not excuse them forcing us to pay for a depreciating, broken vehicle indefinitely.

To make matters worse, we are being told that because we bought this through our day centre, we "have no rights" to reject it and must wait up to six months for them to try and fix it. Exploiting legal loopholes to refuse a refund to a day centre for vulnerable adults is an appalling way to do business.

The General Manager, David Lee, and the team need to step up, do the right thing, and accept the formal rejection of this unfit vehicle. We have now involved our local MP and our finance company to fight this. Absolutely shocking customer care from Vertu Ford Birmingham.
EDIT. IN RESPONSE TO FORDS REVIEW.
Thank you for your response, Kerry.
While we appreciate that the parts are on backorder from the manufacturer, this does not alter the legal reality of the situation.
Under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Supply of Goods (Implied Terms) Act 1973, our contract is for the brand-new vehicle we purchased, which has been entirely unfit for purpose and sitting in your workshop since June 1st following multiple failed repair attempts
How do we know this part will work, the last three attempts you’ve been confident!
While the courtesy vehicle allows our day centre to keep moving, it is not the brand-new asset we are paying over £640 a month for. Expecting a day centre for vulnerable adults to pay thousands of pounds for a broken vehicle while waiting months for a repair is completely unreasonable.
We have completely lost confidence in this vehicle. Because the statutory "reasonable time" for repair has long passed, we have issued a formal notice of rejection to our finance provider, Mann Island, to terminate the agreement and recover our deposit.
We ask that management stops monitoring the "progress" of a failed repair and instead works directly with Mann Island to accept the rejection and wind up this contract immediately.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I appreciate the frustration this situation has caused and would like to reassure you that the management team is aware of the issues you have raised and we are continuing to monitor progress closely.
We are currently awaiting parts from the manufacturer, which are unfortunately on back order and outside of our direct control. In the meantime, we have ensured that a like-for-like Ford courtesy vehicle has been provided to minimise any disruption.
Please be assured that we remain in contact regarding your vehicle and will continue to provide updates as soon as more information becomes available.
Kind regards, Kerry
