Dear Mr Butt,

Thank you for providing the information that enabled us to review the call.

Having listened to the conversation, we found that at no point was the sales agent rude. The agent was explaining that the vehicle's range, when combining a full tank of fuel with a fully charged battery, would exceed 700 miles. The reference to a full charge was made in the context of maintaining the vehicle's performance and battery health, as intended by the manufacturer.

We apologise if this was not clear during the discussion.

Should you wish, we would be happy to arrange a call to explain this in more detail and answer any questions you may have.



Kind regards,

My Experience with the Jaecoo J7 Through Splend – A Warning to Other Drivers

My Experience with the Jaecoo J7 Through Splend – A Warning to Other Drivers

I have been driving a Jaecoo J7 supplied through Splend since 31 March 2026. Unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing and I feel it is important to share it with other drivers who may be considering this vehicle or rental arrangement.
During my time with the vehicle, I experienced a number of issues, including:
- The vehicle rolling backwards while in Drive, creating a potential safety risk.
- Significant wind noise and an apparent air leak from the rear driver's side door at motorway speeds.
- Rear seat belts that passengers regularly struggle to use.
- Incorrect speed limit recognition, resulting in constant warnings and alarms, often displaying the wrong speed limit.
- Vehicle settings frequently resetting to default, requiring repeated adjustment before journeys.
- Two separate incidents where the 12V battery went completely flat and required a jump start.
- Poor hybrid performance compared to the advertised range and efficiency.
- An unexpected emergency braking event which almost caused a collision and left both myself and my passenger distressed.

What has been even more concerning is the level of support received after reporting these issues.
Initially, I expected the vehicle supplier and manufacturer to investigate and rectify any faults. However, I have now been advised that many of these matters are being treated as diagnostic investigations and repairs that I may be expected to arrange and pay for myself.

When the 12V battery failed, I was informed by the breakdown provider that I could wait up to two days for assistance. When I contacted Splend, I was effectively told that the matter was between myself and Jaecoo.

I have also experienced issues with parking penalties. Liability was transferred to me, but delays in council record updates meant I lost the opportunity to pay at the discounted rate or make representations. As a result, I ended up paying significantly more, plus administration fees.

My advice to other drivers is to:
- Thoroughly inspect the vehicle when collecting it.
- Keep records of all faults, photographs, videos and communications.
- Report issues immediately and in writing.
- Clarify who is responsible for diagnostics and repairs before signing any agreement.
- Be prepared for the possibility that vehicle faults may not be resolved as quickly as expected.
- Carefully review how parking penalties and administration charges are handled under the rental agreement.

Based on my experience, I would advise drivers to exercise caution and ensure they fully understand the support arrangements before committing to any agreement.

Dear Raj,

We are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the Jaecoo J7 that you obtained brand new through Splend.

We understand your frustrations regarding the issues you have raised, including the vehicle rolling backwards, a potential air leak from the driver's door, rear seat belt concerns ( stiffness), incorrect speed readings, vehicle settings issues, and the 12V battery.

As discussed during Lisa's call with you yesterday, she reviewed each of these concerns in detail. We advised that you book the vehicle into your local Jaecoo dealership for a full diagnostic assessment of the issues raised. Once you have confirmation of an appointment and an estimated repair timescale, please provide these details to Lisa. Should Jaecoo require the vehicle for an extended period, Splend would be happy to support you by providing a replacement vehicle during the repair process.

Regarding hybrid performance, this was not discussed during yesterday's call. The range information provided to you is based on the manufacturer's published specifications. Similarly, concerns relating to the emergency braking system were not raised during the discussion. We would ask that you report these matters directly to Jaecoo as part of the diagnostic process.

With regard to PCN liabilities, this was also not discussed with Lisa. Had it been raised, she would have explained our process. Whenever Splend receives a PCN, we make every effort to transfer liability to the driver. Unfortunately, not all councils accept transfers of liability. In such cases, Splend has no alternative but to settle the PCN to prevent further escalation of the charge.

We appreciate that you may be dissatisfied with this process. Please be assured that Splend would prefer all PCNs to be transferred directly to the driver where possible. However, the acceptance of liability transfers is entirely at the discretion of the individual council and is outside of our control.

We look forward to receiving confirmation of your appointment with Jaecoo.

Kind regards,
The team at Splend
