Very happy Sportage owner...but.... bought back in June 2020 (online) 2017 reg 13,334 now 19,000 miles....bought from a good...? Kia dealer Essex came with mot + service history (which I'm promised I shall recive at sompoint)....only placed air in tyres once (all 4 tyres Septerper time)....but Thursday rear off side tyre went down 7 psi refilled 34 psi (cold) then today 27 psi (cold)...taken to local very reputal tyre dealer....found what they call a....STRING REPAIR!!!....after driving on M11-M25 for 6.000 miles I'm a bit pezzed. that this was not seen on mot!!!! and the before service and hand over!!!!...apparently these repairs are not LEGAL and highly dangerous.....
So after 6,000 miles I find myself very fortunate, and mostly other drivers who I could have caused a accident too....
So my qustion is ??? do main Kia dealers need to check tyres before sale with or without a mot ???
