Our Aim
The success of Sinclair Land Rover is dependant on the complete satisfaction of our customers and it is never our intention to cause inconvenience. We will always do our utmost to resolve a complaint to your satisfaction and will endeavour to address your complaint in a fair, consistent and prompt manner.
What you need to do in the event of raising a complaint:
Talk to a manager on site
In the first instance we ask that you discuss your issues with the Departmental Manager of the dealership who will assist you with any concerns you may have.
What happens next?
Sometimes we may ask you to outline your complaint in writing; this helps us fully understand your concerns. If we cannot resolve your complaint straight away, we will look into it in more detail. After your complaint has been received, we will take the following steps:
Within a week
We will try to give you a full reply. If this is not possible, we will promptly send you an acknowledgement, which will let you know we have received your complaint and provide you with details of who is dealing with it.
Within four weeks
We hope to have completed our investigations and written to you with our final response. Hopefully, this will resolve the situation but, if you are still unhappy, please contact the General Manager at the site concerned. In some cases, we may need more time to respond and if so, we will write to you with an update of the situation.
Within eight weeks
In the majority of cases, we will have written to you with our final response. It is highly unlikely that your complaint will not have been resolved by this time but if it has not, we will write to you with a further update and the required actions and timelines.
What to do if you are dissatisfied with our response to your complaint
If you are dissatisfied with our final response or the update provided at eight weeks:
