Matt Peacock, Managing Director of Star Tech, a local independent servicing centre, wishes to highlight the danger of avoiding repairs.
Matt said: “The rising costs of living are squeezing average households’ budgets.

Dangerous faults like inadequate brakes, faulty steering and cracked windscreens not only risk your safety, but the safety of other drivers in Poole.
Ignoring faults due to fi nancial reasons is something we don’t want to see at Star Tech, which is why we have adopted a new savings plan, Car Repair Plan, to help customers budget for much-needed repairs.”
