Will I be able to argue with Dacia that this issue was there before my warranty expired, and they are responsible for the fix?
I think the Dacia center are now trying to say that because I needed the AA to come out to me that I have gone against their warranty terms. But the AA person didn't do anything other than run a diagnostic on it, and I needed someone to come out to me as I need the car to get to hospital appointments.As its out of warranty, and did not show up faults at diagnostics stage when at your dealer, you should produce the AA report on their findings to pursue with a warranty claim from your dealer, that this same issue was present with in the warranty period, and for the fact that you held AA cover, it would have been a recovery job to the dealer to sort.
The 30klm restriction is an engine safe mode to get you home.
I'll check this now, fingers crossed it's something like this!! I love this car, it's been so good until now!Check that the accelerator pedal isn't loose , also that the foot carpet hasn't curled around it. My friend has one and same symptoms as yourself, ended up being the pedal caught up in the foot carpet. A neighbour of mine has one for 2 years, wouldn't be my choice of car but it's a little dinger and no problems at all.
This is a great idea, I'll give them a call today and see what I can make happen. I'll update the thread here with the resolution.might be worth giving Dacia Ireland a call, see what they think of your dealer experience. https://www.dacia.ie/contact.html
If an official Dacia service computer was used, this would likely record the fault codes and timestamps from the car, but it's far more likely that an AA technician used a generic tool and simply erased the codes to get the engine running again.EDIT -- So I just went back over my records and the AA person was actually the person that Dacia garage sent out to me to check the car. The AA person and Dacia MUST have a record of this and the car faults, right? They were saying they have no evidence something was wrong.
