Steve - from a previous post'
"Got the car back yesterday after it had spent 5 weeks at the dealer's while they, and MMC tried to correct the sudden lapses into limp-home mode and the regular appearance of the engine management light. A faulty throttle position sensor was replaced, several wiring issues were "corrected"and the fuel tank breather positioning was also corrected. The time that this took was intensely frustrating to me as the owner because the Roadster 3.7 has now spent a total of 2 months of the 11 months I have owned it (from new) off the road for warranty issues. I can only hope that the time that this has taken means that any other owners whose cars are blighted with these faults will get a quicker solution to their problems. On the 100 mile return journey there was no indication of any associated problem but my confidence in the car is at zero level. "
In addition, we had a failure of the circuit board and lighting switch which resulted in the only lighting available being main beam accompanied by the hazard flashers or no lights at all, at the same time the indicators stopped operating, the airbag warning light illuminated although there are no airbags fitted, the hood tore in two places because a reinforcement piece had been omitted at the factory, the heated screen stopped working, the interior lighting stopped working (and no, it was't the fuses), we had a flooded passenger footwell because some strategic sealant had not been applied at the factory, and an oil leak had appeared from the bell housing area. Getting to the dealer's (who was just as frustrated as I was) involved a 200 mile round trip and I grew tired of that very quickly.
In the end, I cut my losses and moved on.
Don.
