Bosch Car Service code of practice gains OFT Approval
Bosch Car Service, run by Robert Bosch Ltd, has secured OFT Approval for its consumer code of Practice
The codes's membership consists of independent garages providing car repairs and it sets the standard that members must comply with when providing vehicle repair services to customers.
Consumers will now be able to look for the Bosch Car Service/OFT Approved code logo when looking for car repairs in order to gain the benefits of the approved code which include:
- a requirement to provide clear pre-contractual information including completion times
- the offer of a written estimate that includes the cost of parts, labour, any other costs or services and VAT
- cancellation rights exceeding those available at law
- guarantees on the work carried out (parts and labour)
- protection of any prepayments if a Bosch Car Service member ceases to trade
- a requirement for Bosch Car Service members not to recommend or carry out work which is unnecessary or unnecessarily expensive
- an independent redress scheme (arbitration)
- regular anonymous visits/mystery shop to test the technical and customer handling skills of the Bosch Car Service network plus annual audits to ensure the code is adhered to and an independent disciplinary review panel to ensure that the disiplinary procedures deal effectively with instances of non-compliance.
Plan ahead for the Winter!
Parked Car Heating for BMW X5 3.0 diesel models
During the frosty winter months, it's no fun scraping ice off your car windows and then getting into a chilly interior. So this is the ideal time to fit the BMW Parked Car Heating System Upgrade Kit.
At the touch of a remote control, the system will warm up the engine, defrost the exterior and heat the interior. No more cold starts - and with the engine fully warmed up before you set off, fuel economy and engine wear reduced.
As a result this also reduces emissions on start up.
The kit is only available for BMW X5 3.0 diesel models and can be supplied fitted for £495.75 inclusive of VAT.
So why not contact us today on 01227 791888 to book or speak to our sales team to fine out more.
