Peugeot Boxer think twice
I bought a brand new Peugeot Boxer June 2012. The reason for buying a new vehicle was that I wanted reliable transport for my deliveries. My first shock came at 58000 kilometres when the first engine was replaced. It took about six weeks to do this. The second engine was replaced at 102000 kilometres and it took 3 months. The problem was the inconvenience of having to use other vehicles to keep up my deliveries. I could not fulfil my delivery obligations to the full and lost some business due to this fact. At about 126000 kilometres the engine light came on and I had to transport the Boxer to Peugeot Port Elizabeth at my own cost of R 1200-00. Diagnostics was done and the censors for the camshaft and crankshaft had to be replaced. My cost R5800-00. Within a week the same problem came up and the vehicle went into limp mode. I took back to Peugeot and this time after three weeks they said it was the harness and to get a new harness will take another three weeks. During this time which was the December rush time I lost about R120000-00 because of this broken vehicle and I still had to pay R12000-00 for the repairs. Within two months its fan broke costing R5800-00.
