BALKWELL MOTOR COMPANY CANCELLED MY CAR WARRANTY I SCRAPPED THE CAR I BOUGHT OFF THEM

I bought an £8,000 dacia from john paul the md of bakwell motor company on 17th June 2023 paid cash and my hyundai car. He said my car was worth £1,900 as a trade in. when i went on 17th to get the dacia he then said my car was worth only £1,000 i haggled on as the new tyres alone on the hyundai cost over £500 and the new clutch i gat fitted put in was £370 both these had a 12 month warranty i gave John Paul. I would add i am a vunerable person registered DISABLED and 70 years old. nobody showed me the Dacia controls or anything like where is the horn button. how to use the reversing camera and other controls. i went slowly the 30 miles home and discovered the central locking did not work and the doors did not lock. I looked for the Handbook on Sunday there was none and also no SERVICE HISTORY EITHER. I CALLED BAKEWELL MANY TIMES ON SUNDAY NO ANSWER MONDAY I CALLED AGAIN AND LEFT 3 MESSAGES FOR THEM TO CALL ME TO FIX THE CENTRAL LOCKING. NOBODY CALLED AND HELPED ME NOBODY CALLED ABOUT THE MISSING HANDBOOK AND SERVICE BOOK. THE CAR HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND I CANT LOCK IT I BOUGHT A STEEL STEERING WHEEL DISH IN CASE IT GETS STOLEN. BALKWELL HAVE DISCONNECTED THEIR LANDLINE NUMBER AND DONT ANSWEWR THE MOBILE. ITS OBVIOUS THIS COMPANY IS NOT A WONDERFUL FAMILY BUSINESS AT ALL THEY ARE MASTER SCAMMETRS AND JUST GIVE YOU A LOAD OF BULL TO GET YOUR MONEY. I HAVE LOST MY HYUNDAI TRADE IN FOR PEANUTS FROM THEM I SHOULD HAVE SOLD IT PRIVATELY WE BUY ANY CAR OFFERED ME £1,400 FOR IT NOW I DAR NOT GO ANYWHERE IN THE DACIA THE YELLOW LIGHT IS ON IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER THE DOORS DONT LOCK THER RED DOORS OPEN LED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS ON ALL THE TIME. IT IS GOING TO COST ME OVER £120 TO HAVE THE CENTRAL LOCKING LOOKED AT IN THE LOCAL AUTOELECTRICS GARAGE. THE SO CALLED 12 MONTHS WARRANTY IS A JOKE THERE IS NO WARRANTY THEY JIUST TELL YOU A PACK OF LIES TO SELL YOU THE CAR. I HAVE WASTED £8,000 CASH HERE AND MY TRADE IN CAR WHICH WAS BETTER THAN THIS DACIA. i NOW NEED ANOTHER £120 TO £200 TO GET THE CENTRAL LOCKING FIXED. I AM 70 YEARS OLD DISABLED & CAN HARDLY WALK AND BALKWELL MOTOR COMPANY DO NOT GIVE A HOOT DONT BUY ANY CARS FROM THIS COMPANY AS YOU WILL GET SCAMMED JUST LIKE ME.
