Another Broken Spring - Pothole Advise

Post by monzadave »

Hello all,

Anyone got any advise on trying to claim for repairs to suspension due to potholes?

I have a mid 00's Passat that's snapped a spring. This is the third car in a row (granted, they've all been shitters) that I've had to repair suspension on.

And it's about time I tried to get the council to pay on account for the number of potholes I traverse daily on the way to work.

Any advise much appreciated

I drove over a HUGE pothole on the A35 once. I had to get Mr Volkscraft to put on a headaed paper that the pothole had caused daamge to my car and sent it off to the relivent council. They basically said thanks for sending this in, but we dont care and case closed. Never saw a dime :lol:
