The car has a 3 months stat warranty which in the old days didnt cover radios or airconditioning etc. but im wondering whether a moderncars icc would be covered due to being more than just a radio as such.

Has anyone else experienced this issue with their Fiesta, know how to fix it or have any experience with second hand dealer warranty claims with this type of issue?

Cheers.
Unti?

I had a WS Zetec and every so often the Bluetooth would play up, so no music or phone calls.

There is no hard reset on the stereo, so I would disconnect the battery for a few minutes and then she'd come good.

The WS Zetecs are great little cars, I had a manual 1.6 which went surprisingly well and used bugger all fuel. Mrs had the 1.4 auto which you could coax along nicely in tiptronic mode.

Apparently most of the 'under the skin' stuff was carryover and pretty well sorted by WS series so you (shouldn't) have any dramas with it.
