Garages facing OFT crackdown

The Office of Fair Trading has warned that garages not meeting service and repair standards face closure as early as January 2007.

The OFT said it plans to begin inspecting both independent and franchised dealers next year with government inspectors cold calling workshops and quizzing quality procedures.

The National Consumer Council has set repairers a deadline of September 2007 to establish a code of practice or face a super complaint.
