warranty nightmare

Hi Guys,

I bought a car from a dealer and it has been only 4 months and the car's AC has got some issues. i took it to a garage and they have quoted £1350 to fix the problem and the warranty company would cover only half of the quote. i am not sure what to do?

should i take it to the dealer? will he help me?

what should i do?

    ..why would you not take it to the dealer??....although depending on your warranty I would not really expect them to pay anything if the car is 2nd hand and over 3 months old. They will probably declare it a "wear and tear" item, like 99% of your car is (according to most 2nd hand car warranties).......I wish you luck, but don't hold your breath...
