I paid MG 2500 deposit fir just under 3 yr old car. Its had un 1st month,new starter motor new gear box then gear box now playing up again, jumps out of second when turning corner. They said in 1st 6month 10 yr warranty for engine mechanical failures wouldn't cover but then then fixed as gesture if goodwill. But now doing it again. Never have I ever had 3 yr old car with this many issues. If I return within mileage and issues can I get my deposit back? To get car elsewhere?

    How long have you had the vehicle?

    When were the starter motor and gearbox replaced?

    When did the jumping out of gear fault start?

    Please give an exact timeline.
