The Press Complaints Commission has upheld a complaint against the Swindon Advertiser for an inaccurate headline written, according to the paper, at a “remote subbing hub”.

The Newsquest paper’s headline falsely claimed that a garage, S & R Motors, was being investigated by Trading Standards after a complaint.

It reported a woman’s claims that there was a defect with a used car she had bought from the garage and that she was unhappy at being given contradictory accounts by the complainant and another garage about whether it was roadworthy.
