Just got home after my drivers rear tyre failed. There was no warning aside from the car pulling to the right. The Michelin tyre deflated quickly and there was no warning given on the dashboard. I thought these GTi cars had a warning sensor when the tyre suffers deflation? I was quite lucky to pull over when I did as the alloy had sheered the tyre wall away from the alloy! I phoned Peugeot assistance as I had problems changing the wheel. Be aware!! Peugeot wanted to charge me £120 for a call out fee for help with changing the tyre! Bearing in mind when I bought the car I was told I had 3 Years of AA breakdown and worry free motoring! I was told that the free 3 year cover did not include the tyres!! Just spent 22k on this car and that's the level of service I have received! Disgusted! Good job a traffic highways pulled over the lend me a hand otherwise I would have had to pay for a £120 charge for help on a dark road! I'm arranging a visit to my local Peugeot dealer tomorrow where I bought the car to ***** and moan over the fact that despite me being apparently covered by AA in fact I wasn't!
The upshot is this could happen to you so be aware that tyre problems are not covered under breakdown or punctures by the 3 year inclusive roadside assistance with Peugeot.Edited by: j74656
