When i first got my car, I purchased some new alloys with the tires seperate which I asked to be put onto the vehicle before the handover.
This was all done and the old wheels were given to me. However, when i drove away I got a TPMS warning on the dashboard. It wasn't the end of the world as I would check the wheels regularly and couldn't find a time to drop the car off to be looked at due to working 06:00 - 18:00 shifts ('Please drop off or collect the car between 08:00-18:00).
It has been a year and i have just had the car serviced and asked for them to look into it. They told me that the TPMS were not put into the new wheels .
As such, i have been told that to get them put into the wheels from the old ones, I would need to pay land rover for labour (after an error on their part?!).
Do I have a leg to stand on as all vehicles are required to be fitted with TPMS before leaving the dealership? Or do i have to bite the bullet and get bent over by LR, paying the cost?
