About LinkBacksHow’s this for a tale of woe.
I bought a 2009 Suzuki Escudo with 140k on the clock from a dealer in Nelson. They gave it a mechanical look over when they got it, and I paid to have a pre purchase inspection done. All looked good.
The car was delivered to Chch where my father in law took possession and was going to deliver it to me in Timaru.
He made it about 2/3 of the way when there was a loud bang, and complete loss of power. Gave the old guy a hell of a fright!
We had the car towed back to Ashburton to be looked at by the local garage.
Apparently one CV joint seized causing the drive shaft to pop out, which in turn damaged the auto trans beyond repair.
I am extremely grateful that I bought full mechanical breakdown insurance with the car, not just hoping the insurance company doesn’t try to wriggle out of it, though I don’t see how the possibly could!
I haven’t even seen the car yet!
