STAR MOTORS - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!

This review is not really about whether Nissan Qashqai is a good car or not. This is about STAR MOTORS!!! Please avoid this dealer at all costs!!!!! I bought the Nissan Qashqai+2 car in June for a hefty £8,500!!!!!! In just 2 months, I had to take it back to the dealer because it couldn't start. The AA mechanic checked it and said 'I WILL NEVER HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM THE DEALER IF I KNEW THIS' He said the dealer has made an incorrect wiring connection on the earthing. The dealer is STAR MOTORS in Essex !!!!!! Please AVOID them AT ALL COST!!!!! Just last week (in another 2 months) the car developed another fault. This time the DPF light came on. Really? I bought the car at 59,000 miles. I've only done 2000 miles!!! Bearing in mind I have driven to Banbury from Orpington almost non- stop so if the filter had a problem it should have regenerated at that point. I took it to Halfords. Paid £85 for regeneration but the light stayed on! For only 2000miles at 60,000mileage the DPF should have regenerated!!!! This meant replacing the filter at £1000 or more!! called the dealer and they refused to do the repair. Bear in mind I still have 6 months warranty on the car!!!!!!! After spending £8500!!!!!! and in just 4 months developing 2 problems!!!!!DO NOT BUY YOUR CAR FROM THEM!!!! You've been warned!!
