£280 bill after MOT

[Deleted User]

Whether the window switch is MOT testable or not, Kwik Fit are only interested in failing things they can sell you replacements for e.g, tyres, brakes, shocks, etc.

It's funny how they even try the hard sell on advisory items but when the advisory is an oil leak they don't even mention it. Obviously not interested in that job.

On a more general note, why is a Jap window switch failing on a 07-12 plate? Even an 07-plate is like a brand new car to me compared to my Y-plate? A bit worrying methinks?

I have a Mazda 6 (07-12) model.

Based on my experience, I would trust a Mazda dealer even less than KF and that is really saying something.:(

I'm surprised. I have a 59 plate mazda6 and the window switches seem quite robust.

Based on my experience a Mazda dealer is easily the best I've dealt with (and that means very good;))
