Hello again.
I see that you have not had a chance to get back to me with the information I requested. It would really help me if I had the full background please.
Based on the limited information provided, let me answer you as far as I can at this stage in time.
If this isn’t what you are looking for or doesn’t answer your question, please respond and we can continue this thread until all your queries are answered.
Meanwhile.....
I will do my best to give you a reply which means something with the limited information in front of me.
If he is in Ibiza then this is Spanish law although I can tell you the situation in England.
It is not normally the manufacturer of the part which broke who is liable but the retailer of whoever he bought it from was also responsible for any consequential loss which happened as a result of the first part breaking.
However assuming he purchased that part in the UK is going to have to wait till he comes back to the UK to resolve that, through the Small Claims Court if necessary.
Meanwhile, is going to have to bite the bullet on getting the car fixed at whatever the cost, and then coming back and dealing with any court costs in the UK when he gets back.
Thank you for letting me assist you with your legal question. I am glad that I was able to help.
I am not certain whether that answers the question for you or not, but I am happy to answer any specific points arising from this.
It will be my pleasure to help you again either further with this or any future questions you have
Kind regards
