RAC allowed my car to be abused

I have been with RAC for a number of years and I have had no reason for complaint. Recently on a long trip, my ABS came on and the brakes were playing up. I called RAC around 18:45 and I was informed someone should be with me by 21:24. The time kept being push to a later and later time until it was moved to 02:48 the following day, leaving be stranded. I cancelled the engineer and arranged another appoint the following morning. The engineer arrived, he stressed the point the car should be driven on the motorway and should be towed to a garage. I took a photo of the mileage and had over a half a tank of fuel. The car was later returned to my house a few days later, and the mileage was increased by over a 100 miles and the tank was empty. The mile gage was displaying 0 miles. I was unable to drive the car to the fuel pump and have to walk with a fuel tank to fill it up just to get it to the garage. I informed RAC that the 3rd party they used to collect had abused my car and also scratched my bumper. RAC came back stating they have conducted an investigated and found no evidence. I informed RAC have I never allowed my car to hit an empty tank in over 23 years. I was heading back home which was a 78 miles drive with family, therefore I made sure I have enough fuel. Also, who in the right mind would park their car on a total empty thank and have to walk to the fuel station to get fuel. They refused to accept responsibility. Reviewed on: 8th September 2024
