RIPPED OFF

I took my Hyundai Getz to him in Pennington place to fix the water in the oil problem. It also had no power to even get up the hill. I asked him to recondition the head. He said that he would prefer to recondition the whole engine for R13000 I accepted that and told him to go ahead. 6 weeks later and after many attempts to get the car or see the progress, he eventually said he needs to take it for a run. He came back and said that it was making noise after he drove it 300m. I said he had the car long enough and I took the car back. I could not even drive it 1k before it started smoking. I decided to sell the car and called Cash Quick Auto who took it for a drive up to Northway and back and said that they don't want to buy it. I sent the car to my nephew who took the engine apart and said that there were very few new parts put in the car. To date 1YEAR later I have decided to sell the car as I have been ripped off by this owner and as a pensioner cannot afford to get my car fixed. I made the mistake of paying him before I got the car back. He has blocked me on his phone and I cannot see him as his security will not let me into his premises. I also tried to get the Motor Industry Ombudsman to investigate the problem but there was no response from the owner. I have given the owner Ashlyn Moonsammy until the end of December to refund me R7000 or I will institute legal proceedings against him. I cannot even get an email to him on megasjlinmonsammy@gmail.com
