Hi All, First message on this forum! I’ve had my MG4 long range for around 6 weeks and done just over 1k miles. Last night I noticed that something seemed to be dangling down from the underside of the car. I was shocked to find, when examining it closer today, that it appears that a large section of the plastic undertray at the rear has fallen/been ripped off (see images) I can’t honestly say when this happened.
After coming on here and finding that there are many examples of badly fitting/bulging fittings, and that in at least 1 case the tray came off when going through water, I suspect it happened when driving in the wet and going through big puddles but actually cannot put my finger on exactly when. There does look like a particularly large bulge on the remaining part of the undertray though.
I have spoken to nearest dealer but cannot get them to look at it for 4 weeks. It is mine under the NHS lease scheme but they just said I needed to sort this with a dealer. It looks like the part remaining is secure but I am wondering about the safety of driving the vehicle in the meantime. Any thoughts/help/suggestions here would be truly welcome. Thank you.
