I sent my vehicle in to Sinclairs in May, I drove it to them for a quotation and then I drove it the second time to them A few days after for the assessment as well as drove it to them the third time A few days after that for delivery to get repairs done. They kept my vehicle there for a month, I followed up every five days and the one excuse they used was the vehicle was not ready. After 29 days, a day before my hired vehicle needed to be returned I find out my engine had blown by over heating. All the valves was bent and my pistons had hairline cracks. They insisted telling me they never started my vehicle! So how the hell does my vehicle over heat so badly that it blows the engine to that extent! I was blamed for the damage and My engine was stripped without my knowledge or authority by Sinclairs! I open my bonnet to see only the block left! they all had different versions of a story! I recorded every conversation since the beginning with the employees and also the owner! And they keep changing their stories every time! My insurer did not represent me when this occurred and they are the ones that chose Sinclairs auto even though they were R10000 more expensive than other panel shops! I had to pay car hire from my own pocket as my insurer did not cover it anymore, I have been paying my car installments from May 2019 to date! I’m paying my insurance on the car as well as a service plan! Now I’m paying a lawyer for his services so that I have proper representation! Whose going to reimburse me for the expenses I’ve incurred because of this disgusting filthy company?! I had to put my wedding off because I couldn’t afford to start a life with my future wife anymore due to paying for all of the above! This is sickening and disgusting because I’m working hard for everything that I have! Now they want me to uplift my vehicle from their premises or they will charge me storage or sell my vehicle claiming they fixed it?!!! They Claimed to have fixed it behind my back how do I know they even fixed it yet they don’t want to communicate with my lawyer or respond to his letters! They are cowards who are sending my insurer messages to give to me! And even so I don’t trust them to do anything further with my vehicle! I’ve had this vehicle for two years now and I never ever had mechanical issues only after they had my vehicle in their possession for a month this ihappened! They blaming me for the damage yet it hasn’t been in my possession!
