There is no need. If one is offered, it is on top of your rights as a consumer.You can ask the dealer for a guarantee.
SIMI are an industry representative body, they represent the interests of motor dealers who fund them via membership subscriptions, not the public.SIMI is mentioned in one piece but that is a standard rather than an organisation?
Our role is to represent the views of the motor industry by campaigning to the Government, state bodies, the media and the motoring public.
They provide sample templates for contracts that dealers can use, but don't be fooled into thinking
Yet we have multiple posts here over the years complaining about them. Going back a few years but they were also claiming virtually all complaints were resolved to the satisfaction of the claimant at a time the CAI were launching an investigation into poor repair standards.As a member of the SIMI, I’m obliged to act in a fair and decent manner when dealing with the public. They will be quick off the mark if I’m not.
You can't compare an industry representative group to a public body established to protect consumers and establish an independent dispute resolution process.Yes it’s funded with subscriptions from motor dealers who are keen to show professionalism in the running of their business, but by your remark, the RTB which is funded by a rental business, should by and large, be a fair minded body to those supporting it.. which is not the case.
After almost 3 years I guess you have your answer.I'd be curious is there any record of actions and restitution Simi has been involved in.
