Appalling service

My father lodged a claim for a cracked windscreen with Oakhurt. The claim was submitted from a trusted glass fitter. Weeks went by with no response from Oakhurst. It's only after I wrote a complaint that they said they'll fix the glass. They sent someone and they put a new windscreen. Within less than 2 months, the glass has cracked from the bottom and the crack has now moved horizontally across the whole screen. I contacted Oakhurst and they sent a technician, final verdict was that the glass was hit by a rock, it must have been a small magical rock travelling faster than the speed of light because this so called area of impact is hardly visible to the human eye. I wrote an email to Oakhurst I even attached pictures of this crack but nothing has come of that. My father is now expected to log a new claim and pay another excess fee for something that is very questionable because the meaning of this is that the car cannot be driven on a gravel road if it's not to be touched by the tinniest soil particle. This has been dragging on for weeks now, too much $ wasted making calls. Different person everyday, \we'll call back"";NULL;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ***;853132;809680;13;5;0;1;0;0;5;NULL;NULL;NULL;15/05/21 7:23;15/05/21 5:31;Great Service;1785;Wendy Lawrence;***;Great Service, Great Communication.

I was informed it will take up to 6 weeks for the repair (really!) But anyway, 1 month later I returned to the showroom due to zero communications from Coricraft to enquire on how long the repairs will still take, just to be informed \the couch cover has never left the showroom; many calls to the show; the showroom manageres : Angie; and even a request to the regional manager Johan - and still no couch cover;or ever any communication from Coricraf !?

Hello missttt,

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.

After the assessment of the windscreen the assessor confirmed that the crack was not caused by incorrect fitment but due to a stone. Therefore a new claim has to be registered for the windscreen to be replaced.

Should you have any further queries you can contact Charney in the Resolutions department who will be glad to assist.

Kind regards,
