Not much has changed in the eyes of the law. We have already had our first fast fit casualty last week. A lady had a test carried out at a local fast fit centre and ended up with a dangerous fail on corroded brake discs along with a lecture on what could happen if the discs cracked under braking! We were asked to replace the brakes but had to inform the owner there was nothing at all wrong with them and could not justify the costs. We then carried out our own test, replaced a wrongly fitted headlight bulb and gave a pass. The only reason she originally had a fail was for greed and we took photos of the discs to show this was the case.
