Consumer Minister open letter to independent garages

Gareth Thomas MP, Minister for Trade and Consumer Affairs has written an open letter to independent garage operators urging them to subscribe to the Service and Repair Code. Have a look, he makes some very good points..

Clearly this endorsement is invaluable to us as we spread the word and get those garages that are responsible business operators to demonstrate the fact by committing to provide satisfactory levels of customer service.

Those that are already subscribing are realising that the Code is more than a compliance tool - it's actually an excellent and cost effective marketing tool. Be a business that makes the move and sign up - then boast about it in your local competitive area, others that aren't can't compete with the levels of consumer reassurance you'll be able to offer.

If you're a consumer looking for a garage to use, check out our Garage Finder for a Code subscriber near you. If the garage you use isn't a Code subscriber, ask them why not!

So, if you're an independent garage owner or a consumer looking for a garage in your area - make sure you visit http://www.motorindustrycodes.co.uk/

It'll change your perceptions of the garage industry!

All the best
Chris
