Thread: MY16 Puma blinker early cancellation

My 110 is just over three years old, with 26k on the clock and has recently started doing this too. I asked the dealer workshop to check it out when the car was serviced earlier this week and, as usual, they weren't able to replicate the issue. It's become a little less frequent this week, but I'll be following it up. It's a nuisance and living in a town that has no traffic lights and a stack of roundabouts, it's dangerous too. It's interesting that a couple of you reckon it's worse when the car is cold. I think mine is more prone to it when cold as well.

Thanks, Well I got it replaced yesterday, and drove it home. Worked perfectly on the way back but this was afternoon with the car warm from the afternoon sun. So I figured the best test will be in the morning. I'm on the road at 5:30am, and it was 6 degrees this morning. Guess what....not a single fault. The blinker works the way a blinker should again!

I don't want to jinx it by saying my problems are over, but I would have safely bet the house on the old one acting up this morning, so as far as im concerned this whole 'characteristic of the vehicle' rubbish is just dealerships avoiding their obligations under warranty. Don't stand for it, whether the dealership wants to accept it or not, its a safety and legal issue and whether they can claim it back from JLR as a warranty issue is not my concern as a customer.

This whole replicating the issue thing is also another hurdle, but my solution to that is get your better half to film it occurring one morning as you drive and then show them the footage, as far as im concerned that's all the evidence they need!
