So my i3 decided in no longer wanted to have cruise control a couple of weeks back. Also didn't want to continue to warn me when pedestrians would walk out into the road.
No bid deal. I can drive fine without and the car is still under warranty. So booked it in and picked up a loan i3 on Monday.
So that's where the fun starts.
First of all they tell me they need to order a part. Ok, how long? No idea. It could be a week or 10.
Secondly I need to take their loan car back and they will swap me to a longer term loan car. So Tuesday my second visit to the garage. Its got a smaller battery and no fast charging cable. But as my car was still there, I grabbed my cable from the boot and we are good to go.
Then out of the blue today I get a call to say my car is ready to collect. Part came in this morning and its all done. Yay I think. Even better I'm WFH today so nice and easy for me.
So I collect my car. The guy tells me they fixed the issue with the interior trim I had also reported as well as the adaptive cruise control/warning thing.
On the way out of the car park I notice the trim has not been fixed. I go back in and tell the guy. He said they will give me a call next week. Not a big deal as it is a very minor thing. But as I get to the duel carriageway I see the cruise control will not activate. Not the same issue as before, but still not working.
Called three times before they shut and the receptionist said I would get a call back. Needless to say I did not.
