Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Plus Four, Supersport & Plus Six (CX & CXV Generation Vehicles) Safety Recall - Brakes

I have been told that a significant number of people with open orders for CX models have told their dealer "I don't want the car until next spring". This will have a serious impact on dealer cash flow.

I pick up my car on Thursday. Nicolas and Steven from the Albert garage were on top and do their best to satisfy the customer.

I'm getting the feeling I should have told them I got married on the 8th of September (and not October)

I suspect the additional revenue from the recall will help Dealer revenue, they won’t pay for the new cars until they are despatched. More importantly as Dada says what costs have we incurred with insurance and tax never mind additional charges incurred by using alternative transport to fulfil bookings made prior to the stop notice being issued. 3 months additional warranty will see me through to December and historically (the past 23 years of Morgan ownership) that equates to about 50 miles additional cover.

For pity’s sake MMC step up to the plate and look after your customers.

I collected my used plus six from the dealer just over two weeks ago, on collection I noted the brake warning light was lit and took the car straight back the dealer who spent two hours trying to fix the fault, but could not do so, I took the car on the proviso that a more local to me dealer would repair the fault, now I am told they cannot fit the car in until the end of October, since collecting I have noted the clock is four hours slow and will not adjust , while on a drive this week while driving briskly the engine management light lit up and went into limp mode for a split second very scary.
The car drives great lots of power and grips great in the dry, on tour 38+ mpg which is surprising in such a powerful car. The brakes work really well when you get used to them, just need a harder push, stopping power is not a problem.
The car should have been well sorted before I collected it, I read that some forum members say it is not the dealers fault well in this case it is and for such an expensive car is just not good enough.

I very much suspect the shareholders are watching this performance....

Well if they do it is not good enough, MCC got away with it in the past because Mog owners just accepted it. 2022 I expect a fault free car, my 7 year old 50000 mile Kia runabout as never been back to the garage with a fault
If MCC want to continue to sell cars to younger generations of customers they must up their game or go bust.

That Fiat twin cam was a lovely car.........

Personally, I would formally 'reject' the car under the 2015 Consumer Rights Act. That should get them to pull their finger out and get it sorted pronto - under the present climate I doubt they'd want to lose the sale.
