Poor after sales

I bought a Biac X55 in December 2022 and 4 weeks ago the car went into limp mode. I took it to Eastvaal Auto in Witbank and after 4days got the car back but the turbo did not boost so the next day I took it back. After they did the diagnostics it was found (on the Monday) that the waste gate on the turbo had a problem so it was ordered from Biac (on Friday) so on Tuesday it arrived at Eastvaal Auto and was installed. The turbo still does not boost as Biac does not come back to Eastvaal auto on what's the way forward. This problem started on 16/04/24 and up to now I had to hire a car as Eastvaal auto has no courtesy vehicle for me. Biac is selling this vehicle but is in no rush to get problems sorted.

Reviewer Update
Just to add on: on Friday 3/5/24 the waste gate was fitted and the vehiche is still in limp mode firstly Biac said they are replacing the complete turbo but then changed and only replaced the waste gate. Around 16H00 Mohammed from Biac called me and said that he will come back to me on monday as they are doing fault finding . Going through the reviews I saw that this problem is on other x55 as well. At this stage my feeling is that Biac can reemburse me for the vehichle and I will buy something more reliable and they can do what they want with the X 55 .I am getting to a piont were by I will go to their head office and get this sorted
