Stay Away from Peugeot! Terrible service and poor workmanship!!!!

I have a 2017 Peugeot 2008 GT line, driven for just over 1 year and currently on 39000kms... still under warranty. On Sunday 07 April 2019 it left me stranded at the mall, Engine Fault: Need repair warning flashed up on the dash and it would not start, this is very strange for practically a new car. Called Peugeot emergency services and the car was towed to Peugeot Pinetown. Now this is the expensive problem I have... Peugeot South Africa refuse to give me a courtesy car for me to get around. I have been paying R226 per Uber trip to get my pregnant wife and I to work and back. My kids have to stay at home and have missed 3 days of school because of this. Now I understand that these faults happen but none of this is my fault yet i am paying the price for it. I spoke to Belinda from customer service who was very rude to me and she says this not Peugeots fault and they can not provide me with a courtesy car because the part that needs replacing is available locally??? I then told her if you can not provide a car for me you would need to reimburse me for my travelling costs which she blatantly said NO! We will not! when i asked why? she could not give me an answer. Now it is Wednesday 10 April 2019 and I am not sure when my car will be available and when my kids can go back to school! But I must give credit where its due and thank Nicole from the service department @ Peugeot Pinetown for going above and beyond to keep me updated. Peugeot SA im afraid you are losing a lot of clients because of your terrible service and poor workmanship!!!!
