Consumer Protection, Sur, recently concluded amicable settlements between consumers and car dealers in the governorate, within it efforts to amicably settle complaints and reports from consumers.

The first was a complaint from a consumer against a car dealer, stating that he purchased his vehicle and after two days the car made a strange noise and started to shake when applying pressure on the brakes, and when he contacted the agency he was told that the car needs programming, but the problem reoccurred and again he took it back to the dealer, and from there the car was sent to the head office in Muscat for checkup and repair, and the problem remained, thus he refused to collect the car and lodged his complaint requesting to replace his car with another. The directorate followed the required procedures and concluded an amicable settlement with the car dealer, whereby the car will be replaced with another valued at OMR 13,400.
The second case was another complaint against another car dealer, and the consumer stated that his car failed while under warrantee, and when he checked with the dealer he was told that the problem is in the tires, and it was fixed. However, the problem reoccurred and it was discovered in the gearbox and it needs to be changed, but the dealer refused, thus he complained. Having verified the complaint and applied the procedures required, the directorate managed to conclude an amicable settlement whereby the dealer will replace the gearbox with a new one, valued at OMR 2,180.
