Introducing Our Client’s Range Rover Sport  

Recently, our team of Range Rover servicing experts at Roade Main Garage played a crucial role in solving an issue with a client’s Range Rover Sport.

Our client brought their vehicle to us, unsure of what type of service was required. 

Luckily, our experts could help. After checking the vehicle’s digital service records, it was time for its 12-month service, even though it hadn’t reached the 10,000-mile threshold.

It’s important to service your Range Rover Sport annually. This allows us to spot any issues before they worsen, saving you money in the long run.

While servicing our client’s Range Rover Sport, our experts performed a complimentary safety check. We like to go above and beyond for all our clients, so when we’re servicing your vehicle, we always check it for potential safety issues. 

We discovered a significant issue with the Range Rover Sport brakes during the inspection. The front brake discs were worn considerably, posing a potential safety risk to our client. 

At Roade Main Garage, ensuring your safety is our top priority; we are committed to identifying and resolving any problems that may compromise your safety on the road.

Following this discovery, we promptly contacted the client to discuss our findings. The client was given complete control over the decision-making process and opted to replace the hazardous brake discs. 

This was a wise decision as it wasn’t only dangerous but illegal, meaning they wouldn’t be able to drive their vehicle on the road.

To limit the inconvenience for our client, we provided a courtesy car at no additional charge. This gesture allowed our client to continue their daily activities without disruption, a level of service and consideration you wouldn’t see at the local Range Rover dealerships without incurring extra costs.

At Roade Main Garage, our experts are committed to providing you with the highest level of service and will always go above and beyond to solve your vehicle’s issues as conveniently as possible.

Call us today for quality Range Rover Sport servicing.

Finding a Solution to the Problem

The initial challenge we tackled was replacing the Sport’s brake discs, which had deteriorated to below the minimum legal thickness. This wasn’t only dangerous but illegal, too. 

To address this critical safety concern, we fitted the vehicle with genuine Range Rover brake discs and pads, ensuring the client’s vehicle received the best quality possible. As we only use genuine Range Rover or high-quality alternative parts in your vehicle, all our work maintains your warranty. 

After completing the brake replacement, we performed another safety inspection and handed the keys back to the client on the very same day they brought their vehicle to us. Our fast turnaround times are unlike those at the main Range Rover dealers, which often have month-long wait lists. 

At Roade Main Garage, we’re dedicated to providing outstanding servicing for your Range Rover, combining expertise with efficiency. If your Range Rover needs servicing, don’t hesitate to call us.

Final Thoughts

A client recently came to us at Roade Main Garage, uncertain of the specific servicing needs for their Range Rover Sport. Fortunately, our skilled technicians were able to help. 

Upon the initial check, our team identified that the client’s vehicle was due for its annual service, which helps keep your vehicle in peak working condition.

During this service, our experts conducted a complimentary safety review and uncovered a severe safety issue with the vehicle’s braking system. The brake discs and pads had worn down below the legal minimum, rendering the vehicle unfit for the road.

Without urgent attention,  the vehicle’s brakes could have caused an accident. 

We promptly informed the client about the situation, and our Range Rover specialists immediately  sourced genuine Range Rover parts to replace the brake discs and pads, all within the same day.

To ensure the client’s day was not disrupted, we provided a courtesy car at no additional charge. 

Following the completion of the service, the client could drive away confidently knowing that their vehicle was safe and complied with legal standards. Our client was especially pleased with the swift service, allowing them to avoid the lengthy wait times often associated with main Range Rover dealerships.
