11 Years Later — Still Warning Others About Capitol Auto (Midrand)

In 2014, I purchased a Ford Focus from Capitol Auto in Midrand. What should have been an exciting purchase quickly turned into a nightmare. From day one, the car developed problems. I reported these issues immediately to the salesperson, but instead of assistance, I was met with excuses and avoidance.

The situation escalated into a long and draining legal battle, which eventually ended in a settlement with the owner. But even with that, the damage was done. They ****** me of the simple pleasure of owning and enjoying a semi-new car — something I had worked hard to achieve, Thanks, Capitol.

Eleven years later, I still check Hellopeter from time to time, hoping to see improvement. Sadly, I find the same types of complaints repeating year after year. It’s clear that the company has learned nothing and continues to trade on the trust of unsuspecting buyers.

To anyone considering buying from Capitol Auto in Midrand: please read the reviews carefully and proceed with extreme caution. Don’t be misled by the polished sales talk or promises — once you drive off the lot, you may find yourself fighting the same battles many of us already have.

Consumers deserve honesty, accountability, and fair treatment — not years of frustration. I hope this serves as a warning and a reminder that your voice, like mine, matters.
