I am posting this as a new thread because it concerns serval threads about issues with the MG4.i hope that’s OK admin.
So a couple of weeks back we got a letter of recall for the door locking problem that some have experienced on the mg4 but we have never as yet.1900 miles in.
Rang the dealer and booked it in to have this checked and sorted, had to wait 2/3 weeks but it went in today, when I made that phone call I told the receptionist that there where a few things I would like them to look at. While they had it.
1 Lane keep assist in my opinion Dangerous to use so switch off and never use from when we got the car.
2 Apple CarPlay very unreliable and some of the time hit and miss as to if it works are not, iPhone 13 with a new Apple cable plus i have tried other iPhones of friends and cables of different types the same.
3 Car braking when there is no need to sometimes quite hard while using ACC
4 Headlights always on even on bright sunny days, no reason for them to be.
5 Interior temperature figures totally wrong not that important but can it be checked please.
6 The under tray bulging which was there when we pick up the car on day1, and the salesman said it would be sorted out in due course.
I also asked if they would check for any oil leaks while the had the under tray off not that I have seen any signs of an oil leak on my drive way but others had, and now having doing 1900 miles I was not worried about one.
So to the title Disappointing day, as I said took the car give them both keys just in case they might need them after any updates and went for a walk for a while, and when i return still had to wait a while as I had expected but eventually a heard my name called and went to the service desk to be told.
I needed to bring the car back as because of a computer issue they could not do any updates including the recall for the door locks so then they said but we have found an oil leak, but where unable to do anything about it other than take some pictures to send to MG to get permission to order the parts for repair couldn’t believe it never seen anything but fair enough needs to be fixed.
The bulge in the under tray is Normal, all MG4s come with that and nothing was going to be done about it now I now had a disagreement with the service chap about this issue and he told me the what I had been told by the salesman was incorrect and he must have been mistaken as they in the service area have not heard anything about renewing the trays, and wouldn’t be doing so because it is not a safety issue.
The other things listed above LKA, unnecessary braking, headlights nothing had been changed on these, and when it goes in again they may look at them when they get the computer working correctly.
Apple CarPlay was as far as they can tell by plugging there phone and cable into the car fine no issues.
They will call me when the part for the oil leak arrives, and may need the car for a day or two.
