Pinetown Cars - Dont buy from them!!

Pinetown Cars = PLEASE DONT EVER BUY FROM PINETOWN CARS!!!!!!!!! I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH - DONT BUY FROM THEM. My husband had the unfortunate experience of buying a Ford Ranger from them, after a few months, the engine packed up. Warranty did not cover the repairs. So we were forced to refinance and get another Ford Ranger from them. This Ford Ranger only lasted a few months, and surprise surprise, this engine also failed. Warranty covered some of the repairs and Pinetown Cars told us that all we would have to pay is the labour fees - which we were given a rough estimate of R 15000.00, which was agreed that we would pay this off. The engine replaced - but the car is still not fixed, it is still going into Limp mode and we have had endless issues with this car since this so called repairs, and also on top of that we were informed that no the repairs came to R 41 000, which we have to pay?? How did it jump from R 15 000 to R 41 000 and ontop of that they want there payment for the repairs, but they have not even produced an invoice for the repairs. And to crown it all - the previous Ford Ranger is still in my husbands name and we have requested, begged and pleaded with them to take that Ranger off my husbands name as we are no longer in possession of the car, But NO - ITS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND ITS STILL IN OUR NAME AND WE ARE STILL LIABLE FOR IT, and every month we have to remind them and beg them to take that car off our name....We are trying to run a business where we need a bakkie but we dont have a bakkie to use. All we wanted is a reliable car - and there we are - sitting with a bakkie who is parked at our home gathering dust, payment huge monthly installments and we cant even rely on it. All I can do now is warn as many people as I can. I did not want to go this route, but left with no choice!!!
