Substandard Cars

I am writing the review on behalf of my father Mr Samual Potgieter that is a pensioner and not healthy.

My father bought a Audi A4 Multitronic 2015 model for R139 000 on 23 March 2024 cash at infiniti Auto Boksburg.

The sales person was Mr Abdoul.

The car had a problem from the day, my Father bought it, it started with the car making a strange noise on their way back from the garage.

Thereafter it struggled to start and drive.

The garage never informed my father about any engine problems.

The Garage were informed of the issues on numerous occasions informing my father that they will get back to them which was never done.

My father had a few mechanics to come have a look and parts where bought which resulted in around R40 000 being spend to get the car fixed which only helps for a few days then the car does not want to start again, every time diagnosic testing are done to get the fault that costs money.

I will not advice anyone to buy any cars the garage as they do not care about their customers buying cash or selling them substandard cars.

According to me, the consumer law artikel 41, protects consumers, especially when buying pre-owned vehicles. consumers have specific rights. These rights includes receiving a vehicle of good quality, in working order, and being informed if the vehicle has undergone any reconstruction and so forth.

My father was not informed of anything regarding the engine of the vehicle or that it had any problems whatsoever.
