Looking for some advice. I recently put my car (2010 Clio) in for an MOT in Halfords Auto Centre. The car failed with 4-5 issues needing to be addressed and they quoted me approx. £580 for the repairs.
I took car to another garage to complete the work & full service and booked it in for a re-test. When car was re-tested they failed it again on another issue which wasn’t detailed in the original MOT.
** Front sub-frame extensions and cross member corroded **
The mechanic advised that he cannot pass the car and apologised for an agency working originally missing the damage on the original check. I raised my concerns and made a complaint with their customer services.
They have since phoned me advising that after further consideration they are now happy to pass my car as the damage should be recorded as an advisory and would need to be fixed before my next MOT.
Can anyone advise further on corrosion and if this should be a fail or advisory?
Also has anyone had their car failed by something missed from the original MOT?
Thanks in advance
