Six West Yorkshire Pendragon stores given Auto Trader Highly Rated status

Six West Yorkshire stores owned by Pendragon PLC have been awarded Auto Trader’s Highly Rated status for 2023.

A significant accolade in the automotive sector, the awards are based on the reviews and feedback provided by genuine Auto Trader customers over the past year. Winning retailers must meet set criteria to achieve the Highly Rated award, which includes maintaining an average review rating of at least four stars on Auto Trader's marketplace.

Kim Costello, chief customer officer at Pendragon, said: “We are delighted to be able to display the Highly Rated award at six stores across our West Yorkshire dealership network, following a year of incredible customer service and aftercare.
