Just getting ready for holiday to France next Thursday and today loud screeching noise coming from car (near front brakes - drive shafts - power steering etc) on my Vauxhall Vectra Est. 54 reg.
As it was Sunday and main dealership closed I decided to give Mayday a call (comprehensive cover) hopefully to see if I could get some expert advice.
Much to my surprise the Mayday operator took all details and then said as it could be brakes or something which would need the car to be jacked up the breakdown service could not do this for safety reasons they would have to tow me or transport the car to the main dealer. As it was Sunday and the dealership closed they said I would have to contact the main dealer and get them to transport the car and sort out problem on Monday !!
Is this right ? if so it means we are paying a lot of money to just have our cars towed to the garages. What can they do under the breakdown cover ?
Has anyone heard of this sort of thing
