We all make mistakes in life and the ones we can quickly resolve may not be described as this, but perhaps just minor blips such as filling your car with the wrong petrol. Fortunately, while an error like this may seem disastrous at the time, there is no need to panic when you call our expert technicians. Our quick service prevents your day being filled with regret at a loss of concentration and you’ll quickly be able to drive safely with a fully restored vehicle without it being taken elsewhere.
After saying a mistake can only result in a small error is correct in the overwhelming majority of cases, but this cannot be said for a 14-year-old girl from Buffalo. She took her father’s car for a spin which did not last very long at all unfortunately for her. The car stalled not because of her assumed inexperience on the road, but due to the fact that the teenager filled the car with diesel instead of regular unleaded petrol. You’ll avoid punishment for putting the wrong fuel into your own vehicle, but the girl is due to appear in court after being charged third degree unauthorised use of a motor vehicle.
Fuel prices may continue to decrease following an answer made by David Cameron at PMQs in the House of Commons earlier this year – which will be gratefully received by all drivers up and down the country. Perhaps this should have been done a number of years ago, but at least progress appears to be happening. It’s better late than never. This saying rings true when you come to sorting your fuel issue. If you drive knowing the wrong fuel is in your car then this will cause expensive damage and worsen a problematic situation.
Whatever rush you’re in you can take comfort by the fact we have a 30-minute rate of depositing the fuel without harming the environment and allowing you to continue your journey. Deciding to take the risk of damaging your car may not result in a court appearance, but it will certainly knock you back financially. You will avoid fuel circulation when resisting the urge to turn on the car engine so ensure you act quickly in order to limit disruption.
If you realise or think you may have made an error when filling up then do not start your car, ring us as soon as you can. Call us on 0330 010 0511 – we’re available 24 hours a day, every day of the week and will send someone to you in no time at all. Don’t make the dreadful mishap of the teenager from Buffalo and continue driving after using the incorrect fuel.
