Beware of Unapproved service providers.

I recently had a very unpleasant and expensive experience with a local vehicle repairer A.J.S Auto Service Centre. (Shallcross moving Township to old AG’s sweet warehouse location) After quoting me an amount for over R10 000 and insisting on 50% deposit this Very Christian father (Anthony) and son duo proceeded to immobilize my vehicle claiming they were getting parts from Johannesburg. After 5 weeks of “wrong part supp****”, I requested the return of my vehicle only to be insulted, bul****, accused of being rude for interrupting their lunch and threatened with additional charges to be tacked onto me bill. Even after agreeing to pay the monies demanded, I was told it would take another week to assemble the vehicle with no repairs done. It was only through a third-party mechanic, I was able to get my vehicle assembled and repaired by replacing 2 fuses, then vehicle was driven away. Being born in Chatsworth and now living in Johannesburg, I try my best to spend my money with Indian business in my home town but after this experience I have serious doubts on doing this again. Please alert you family and friends to be cautious and only use RMI approved dealers.
