Top Gear Auto ****************

I bought a used Land Rover Discovery 4 in August 2019 and I was very skeptical about this deal as it sounded too good and I asked as many questions as I could with James Dube the service manager of the branch in Bryanston managing to convince me to take the car. In less than no time, I started having gearbox issues in December 2019 as I was in Eastern Cape visiting family. I had to drive not more than 80km/h for about 800km as the rev count was too high on the car and advised by my sales manager to drive as is to get it checked. On arrival to Joburg, Top Gear advised me to take the car to Landy Tech in Borksburg and after a couple of weeks the car was fixed. My hear almost stopped beating when I heard that the cost was R45 000.00 just to recondition the gearbox (not new) and Top Gear advised Landy Tech to recover all the costs from me as the owner. My question is the default Consumer Protection Act warranty which is 6 months because I was still within but I did not win that battle with Top Gear as they only agreed to pay R8000 from their side.
