"Shocking Service & Substandard Vehicle"

Resolving issues

We purchased a Range Rover P400e Vogue SE from this dealership, and the experience has been extremely disappointing from start to finish. The salesman involved was Jay. The vehicle, advertised at £34,177, was sold to us for £33,377, but it failed to meet the standards expected of an Approved Used Land Rover. It broke down just days after delivery. Our part exchange vehicle was valued at £22,433.84 on the official Land Rover website, yet we were only offered £20,500 – a significant undervaluation. The vehicle we received was handed over with visible dents, scratches, and even dog hair inside. By this point, the part exchange had already been processed. We raised our concerns with Ryan on-site on 31/01/2025, and as a gesture of apology, a dashcam was offered. On 5/02/2025, Ryan emailed to confirm the vehicle was being valeted and would be delivered that evening. When it arrived, it was missing the remote for the rear entertainment system, included one damaged Range Rover headphone, and one new Land Rover headphone that didn’t even connect. Just three days later, the car began shutting down intermittently. We reported the issue on 11/02/2025, and Jay responded a week later on 18/02/2025. On 21/02/2025, Jay advised us to contact recovery and request a courtesy car. However, recovery refused, stating the dealership needed to handle it due to the nature of the fault. Eventually, on 24/02/2025, a courtesy vehicle was provided by the dealership and the faulty Range Rover was collected. As of today, 25/06/2025, the vehicle remains unrepaired. During this time, we have continued to pay finance instalments, insurance, and road tax on a car we cannot use. The dealership’s sales and senior management teams have been unhelpful and dismissive. We were told we would be “put back in the financial position we were in before,” but this failed to account for the financial losses already incurred due to these ongoing costs, as well as the stress caused to my 71-year-old father, for whom the car was a gift. Bailey, the Used Car Sales Manager, has not been supportive or proactive in offering any solutions. Rob, the new General Sales Manager, has also failed to provide any meaningful assistance or show understanding of the distress this situation has caused. Patrick, the General Manager, sent a blunt and dismissive email stating the courtesy car would be collected within 14 days regardless of whether our vehicle was repaired, and advised that if we wished to reject the vehicle and seek compensation, we must do so through Black Horse Financial Services, as the dealership would not assist further. We raised a formal complaint with Jaguar Land Rover, initially handled by Sharon and later passed to Afraz, after which the dealership’s treatment worsened. Our request to have Sharon reassigned was refused. Despite asking for the complaint to be escalated, it appears this has not happened. Lehmal did keep us informed throughout the process, but was clearly limited in what he could do, as he was only able to act based on guidance from the Jaguar Land Rover Technical Assistance (TA) team. We have now involved our insurance company’s legal team, Black Horse Finance, and will be escalating the matter to the Motor Ombudsman – although we remain sceptical, given their poor reputation for siding with dealerships. This experience has been incredibly stressful, financially damaging, and completely unacceptable for a brand that claims to uphold high standards. I would strongly advise others to avoid this dealership.

"One error after another one"

I purchased a car from this dealership in 2023, and it broke down just four hours after I picked it up. I also bought a service plan, but there were numerous errors in the paperwork, requiring me to call them repeatedly to correct the issues. After two years, I discovered they had mishandled the service I paid for, resulting in an additional $1,300 expense. When I called for assistance, they said they couldn't help, as that is how the computer system show, despite my having a written contract.

These people lie to you. Service department staff tell you they done work because they technician said he done it. Only to find work wasn't done and customers pay. Scammers...

High prices. Dubious reasoning. Poor customer service. You can get anything done elsewhere for cheaper.

Truly, deeply appalling customer service. I bought a Range Rover Sport Autobiography from Lookers in Battersea to benefit from a main dealer warranty. When I was buying they were all over me and the coffee was lovely. Once I had a problem and turned to the warranty, they completely washed their hands. 7 phone calls to their dealership went unreturned. An email and follow up phone call to their group CEO was ignored. I also wrote to their complaints line and similarly useless. In my experience, Lookers give car dealers a bad name. There are plenty of other main dealers who care not only at the time of purchase but after as well.

ooked a service with Lookers Battersea on 14/04/22 & 12/09/22. On both occasions they sent me a confirmation text, to confirm the booking. On both occasions I called on the day, to re-check, only to find out they had to cancel. Probably the most disorganised and unprofessional garage I have ever dealt with. I’m glad my vehicle never made it in their gate. I called x4 times on the 12th. Twice direct with the garage, and twice with central bookings. It was only when I got to the 4th call that someone could definitively say the booking would have to be cancelled. 5hrs of chasing, only to be told they messed up the booking. I was given a different story on every call. If you have a busy schedule, and need to make time for this outfit, you ought to avoid.

So busy with orders that customer service has gone out the window. It has been a terribly disappointing experience for me, which actually ended with me cancelling my order and I won’t be coming back to the dealership or indeed JLR again. I know they are very busy and have orders coming out of their ears so it doesn’t have any impact on the business but that is not an excuse for the lack of communication and customer care I’ve received from them. All was well when placing the order then all went extremely quiet and the Salesman didn’t provide any updates as he had promised and it took me turning up at the dealership in person on one occasion to get some answers. Then I had various attempts at chasing delivery information and I repeatedly made it clear I wanted to know when the cut off for spec changes to the order would be as I didn’t want to miss it - I was just told we had to keep waiting. By the time the Salesman eventually got around to putting through the spec changes (again after numerous chasing emails from my end, a three week period of complete silence) apparently JLR came back and said no it was too late. I asked for changes on April 12th and the Salesman didn’t respond until 7th May when prompted by an email from me telling him to cancel the order because he wouldn’t reply. Had he processed my request when he got it in April, the changes would have been made in time and the car I wanted would have been built. He admitted on the phone he should have probably called me a couple of weeks before to avoid the situation but I was then left with the choice of paying £68K for a car in the wrong spec or re-ordering (at an increased price) and going back to the end of the 12-Month queue. On reflection I decided enough was enough and cancelled my order. I’m now almost three weeks out from cancelling the order, I have had no deposit money refunded nor has the salesman provided any details, despite me chasing again 4 days ago. I also emailed the Sales Manager yesterday who hasn’t bothered to respond. I shouldn’t be surprised though as it took the Salesman a week to respond to the second cancellation email because it was his birthday! That’s lovely for him but completely irrelevant to me and not an excuse - I imagine cover should be in place in such situations and indeed an Out of Office message. I have two friends who have had very similar experiences with the dealership and specifically the same Salesman. It was such an underwhelming, disappointing and off putting experience not matter how desirable JLR cars may be that cannot make up for the short comings. Save yourself the agony and go see Porsche who actually care about their customers.

I thought I would try Battersea as I had seen an almost identical Discovery at Landrover Sunbury, Battersea's was 2 months younger and 8,000 miles lower mileage, both in great condition. After going through all the finance deals available I decided cash was the better option. I returned a week later and took it for a test drive..it was lovely, then on viewing again I noticed there were just 2 tiny "nicks" on the passenger door, this had to be put right to make the deal and they agreed to respray rather than "touch up". Car looks like brand new now and it is 3 years old. Lots of email correspondence / updates with the salesman Clive Newell (5 stars) and plenty good after sales service as well. I recommend a visit to Landrover Battersea.
