rejecting a lease car

[LeftHandedSpanner]

I have had a lease car that is now 14 months old. It is a performance model of premium brand, I wont name names but something like the an a45 or a s1.

It broke down with a transmission fault after 4 months/2000 miles and it has been in an out of the garage many many times now.

I have been without it for the best part of the last 2 moths and have been driving a diesel base model version of the car I am paying for. The garage have done their best but there was a long wait for a part, then it was lost, then the wrong part or faulty sent etc.

I have a report which shows that the fault was caused by missing parts from the factory. Does anyone have any advice please, I believe that I have a case to reject it and get at lease some of my money back and cancel the rest of the 22 month lease.

The lease co is the manufacturer, Im not sure how helpful they can be.

Manufacturer & finance house will be seperate entities. Speak to the lease company themselves.

I agree speak to the lease co they are separate entities.

I had issues with a car repeatedly and the dealer was fobbing me off. Getting the lease co involved changed the dealers attitude considerably. I ended up returning the car a year early at no cost because it was dragging on and on.

Hi, it should be even easier in this case as the dealer will get told off straight from the horse's mouth. I guess it's a VW?
