Bad service complete *******. Dishonest mechanic
This mechanic worked on my Kia picanto... Three weeks later it had the same problem. First of all him and his wife told me that the head is cracked when I said I will send someone to collect and fix it she sent me photos where the head is so called cracked. When SAC Engineering from van der bilhpatk picked it up it had red paint over. On the photos you can tell it was man made by the mechanic.... End its cost me R2500 plus R500 to collect and to test and polished out the cracks made by the mechanic. The short and long he put it back brought my car back and the initial problem was not fixed. Took it back, a day later and not even 10km further smoke came out of the engine. Oil leak onto the engine. Numerous messages back and forward she keeps telling me the engine is not going to last??? R8000 WAISTED, and many tears. Now it's at a real mechanic who confirmed that he did not put the seal in properly and I would have had big problems again. And there is a water leak on the pipes he was working on. The engine is not in the bad state as the previous mechanic claimed it was. I'm definately going to take them to small claims court to claim all my expenses back. They haven't emailed me the guarantee or nothing. The second time they dropped off my car they've said they will only guarantee the head..... Lol which I've paid for and have a warranty on from SAC Engineering. So basically he son guarantee his work. Rocky Wilkinson from Kempton Park will never touch my car or anyone I know. Bad bad service complete *******. I have the proof. Photos of marks made in the head. Be careful.
