VERY BAD COMPANY
I also fell victim to this company. I was looking for an engine for my husband's bakkie. He phones me and tells me that he would be able to rebuild it. Quotes me 9500. After a few days of consideration, we except his quote and I pay him 4500 deposit for the new parts that he needs to fit. He comes to tow in the vehicle on 26 Feb 2021. Estimates that it would take around 10 days. On 05 Mar 2021 I contact him to check on progress of the vehicle, and here is where the list of excuses start. 2 of his personnel were sick and they fell behind. 09 Mar I request a progress report, no reply. On 12 Mar same story. On 16 Mar he informs me that he would need to do some engineering and I will need to pay an additional 1900, which I paid. He let me know that he has paid it over to the engineer. On 17 March I decide to go and check on the vehicle. I have never seen such a disorganized dirty workshop. On 18 March I send Martin a mail expressing my concerns on the progress of my vehicle, again no reply. 19 March he informs me that he will be receiving the engine from the engineering shop. 22 March I enquire about when vehicle will be done, no reply. On 23 March same question, no reply. 23 March I requested that he gets my vehicle ready for me to collect. 26 March towed vehicle back home. Since 26 March empty promises to refund my money, or at least bring me the new parts that he was supposed to purchase with my deposit. After checking all parts stripped from the vehicle, we found a long list of parts, nuts etc missing. Even the globes from the back lights. 12 April handed him over to my lawyer. PLEASE DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY OR EITHER OF THE OWNERS MARTIN AND JJ. They take your money, strip your vehicle and use the parts for other vehicles, and damage interior and exterior. Please let me know if you also have a problem with this company. If we unite we might be able to get results

VERY BAD SERVICE
WORSE SERVICE EVER!!!! THIS COMPANY IS VERY BAD. Took my vehicle - Ford Fiesta 1.6 to Diesel Tech father Martin son JJ quote me R9000 to overhaul the engine, paid R4500 deposit on 14 October 2019. 25 October he lets me know the engine will be ready on the 29 October. Paid the rest of the money in. 31 October engine is not ready some problem, they will bring the engine on Monday 4 November. excuses for not bringing the engine. 8 November I told him to meet me at the shop on Sunday I will come and collect, said yes but when we got there, no one there and he is not picking up his phone. Phoned his son he said the engine is not ready he is still waiting for seals. 19 November got the engine from JJ but no dipstick, ask where it is, they dont know will get me another one and courier it to me. 22 November when we unwrapped the engine both the cam sensors is broken, asked Martin about it... he will get second hand for us. Kept letting me know that the people is bringing him the wrong parts. 2 December started looking for the parts myself and send him the contact details of a company that has the sensors. 5 December he lets me know he does not have money to buy the sensors R950.00 but he is waiting for money. 9 December I offered to pay for one just so that I can get the car fixed. 17 December and nothing. I was unable to get the parts second hand so had to buy new ones for R2500. Put everything together and put water in.... water leaking at the thermostat holder, take it out NO SEALER.. put sealer in and put back, put water in again leaking at the head.... Ask Martin about it and told him about the leak at the thermostat and tell him he needs to come to my house to fix the car. Martin tells me I need to take out the engine and bring it to him... it cost me R2000 every time I take out or put in the engine. Explain to him that I dont trust him and that with everything broken on the engine I cant give him the engine again, who knows what we will be getting back. He said sorry that is the guarantee rules. He will not come out and see what is wrong. If I dont bring him the engine then there is no guarantee. Now had to take it to another person to fix. DONT TRUST THEM WITH YOUR VEHICLE!!!!
