Quite probably yes
From the consumer direct website, amongst other things:
"When buying from a dealer, the law says a car must be:
• Of satisfactory quality. It must meet the standard a reasonable person would regard as acceptable, bearing in mind the way it was described, how much it cost, the age and the mileage on the vehicle. Amongst other things, this covers the appearance and finish of the car, its safety and its durability. The car must be free from defects, except when they were pointed out to you by the seller."
You could quite easily argue that the repair clearly was not of satisfactory quality. in the same way you wouldn't expect a wheel to fall off after a couple of months
Therefore, as i said they must repair/replace/refund.
As i said, phone consumer direct!!!!! they are experts in this and will tell you exactly what your rights are!!
