First time buying a 2nd hand car out of all vehicles I've previously owned. This dealership made it my worst nightmare and had me despise cars.co.za . Bought a 2019 Ford Kuga EcoBoost 1.5 Trend. Vehicle said to be in excellent condition on the adverti*****t and service record up to date. Test drove the vehicle for less than 15 minutes around town where all gears could not obviously been engaged. Stop N go situation. Assured all was in order, only to find they were lying. On my way back going home, noticed there wasn't power on the vehicle, it was vibrating and misfiring. Following day the engine light came came on. Checked, found there wasn't coolant in the car. Topped up, only for it not to last a day. Took it to Eastvaal Ford for service. Upon checking they found that the engine had an internal damage. Excessive amounts of coolant entering the combustion chamber on cylinder 3 hence they refused to do any work on it because of that type of engine for that car being discontinued and Ford not fitting in 2nd hand parts. Vehicle was previously in an accident, noticed that after doing paperwork. You first pay then do paperwork. Contacted them but they seem not to be taking me seriously. The vehicles paperwork is also not in order, found that out from the traffic department. Was given a Natis which reflected another company as being owners of the vehicle, whereas that same company does not even reflect at the traffic dep. Licence disc on the car expired. Car now just parked, Engine on limp mode and car not in EXCELLENT condition like they claimed. Purchased the car 2 weeks ago for 148k. Now I will have to spend even more money to get this resolved and I will not rest!
