Hello,
I purchased a Ford Fiesta 1.4 Zetec petrol at auction in April, the car is 14 months old. Last week I had to call the RAC out to come and look at it when it had broken down, the very nice gentleman described that I had a broken spring which had wedged onto the front right wheel. The RAC couldn't do anything by the road so I have been towed to a ford dealer and am booked in for repair. As you maybe able to tell I have little machanical knowledge and do not want to be "ripped off". I was advised by the driver of the tow truck to try and get this done under warranty (which expired 2 months ago) - and "kick up a fuss" as this shouldn't happen after such a short space of time.
I would very much appreciate any comments or advice on what angle to take with the garage, also anyone who could suggest how much money I should expect to have to spend on this.
Thanks
Kate
