I recently booked a paid diagnostic… I recently booked a paid diagnostic service through RAC and was left extremely disappointed. The technician arrived but failed to conduct a proper fault diagnosis on my vehicle’s air conditioning issue. Basic checks such as testing the power supply to the compressor, relay function, and electrical faults were completely ignored. Instead, I was told “it could be the compressor” and “if it were my car, I would just replace it.” This vague and dismissive approach is completely unacceptable from a company that claims to offer professional diagnostics. I paid for answers not guesswork. To make matters worse, the mechanic closed the case without identifying the actual fault. I was left exactly where I started: no fix, no clarity, and out of pocket. If I wanted speculation, I could have gone to an untrained garage for half the price. RAC’s service felt like a marketing con more about ticking boxes than actually helping the customer. I will be escalating this to the Motor Ombudsman, and I strongly advise others to seek proper diagnostic specialists instead. Extremely dissatisfied. I expected far better from RAC.
