Guess who we should buy our cars from and guess who we shouldn't. I'll make a point of avoiding A/C on the back of this thread and head to Stirling with my car.

The guy who owns Reject my car says he has 63 ongoing cases against A/C throughout the UK.

Hi, guys just a wee update. All three companies involved have now had a summons raised against them, so can't really post much about it as it is now more or less getting ready to go to court, or see who blinks first. The one thing I can say is AC had a visit from an independent engineer and they weren't very happy about it, and the engineer wasn't happy with their attempts to fix the car, and it's still not fixed. Keep you updated when I know more.

Another wee update. Looks like things are heating up for KIA and AC. I got this info yesterday but the guy dealing with my case posted this on his LinkedIn account.

There are several thread on the engine issue. Which has nothing to do with Ceeds. It relates to the 48V mild hybrids Sportages.

So are AC lying too you over the problem?

My Ceed is a 48V mild-hybrid, so I guess it's the engine and not a specific model. I think AC are caught up in a web of lies to KIA and it just needs to be sorted out who's at fault.

Yes - it is exactly the same engine/hybrid that goes into the Sportage - so it will be because of that.

Ah did not know that. But usually the failure is very clear due to noise, loud squeal & lack of ability to drive.

Unless as has been said before AC have lied & are blaming a software upgrade for something else.

Amazing story 👍🏿

Another wee update. AC and Kia are having constant pops at each other, with them blaming each other for the issues. My lawyer thought we were close to arranging a court date, but then AC changed the legal team they were using and everything is on hold again until they are up to speed.

Turned into a nightmare mate. I now haven't had a car since March and have to beg and borrow a car to get to my work 25 miles away.

I sincerely hope that when you win your case you get very substantial damages to help soften the blow of all the aggro you've had. Keep on truckin.....
