You do NOT need to write any addresses. Begin your letter as follows: Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with a recently purchased
car
from your company. It is disappointing to have received no response from the customer service team
, as I have tried every method to contact them. I have not received any replies to my messages or emails.
It has been nearly eight days since I purchased my second-hand Toyota from your showroom, and I expected no problems after completing the purchase. However
, after just a few days, the car
began to behave abnormally. Firstly
, the engine made loud noises when I exceeded normal driving speed. Eventually, the car
started stalling in some locations.
After experiencing these issues, I attempted to reach your support team
. Unfortunately, I received no responses. I would appreciate it if the team
manager could call me as soon as possible. This
would give me the opportunity to explain my concerns and seek a solution for my car
. Getting my car
fixed or replaced would greatly improve my situation.
I urge your team
to understand my concern and respond promptly.
Yours faithfully,

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
