Weelee sold me a platinum rated lemon 🍋

I bought a Platinum rated Mahindra from Weelee. I identified an issue with the rear tyre and I was promised that it will be fixed by the time I collect the car. 🤡

1. The rear tyre wasn’t fixed, they replaced the tyre with the spare wheel, which means my new spare wheel is now a defective tyre. 2. The other rear wheel also has issues and I need to buy a new tyre. 3. The front wheels have issues too, they bounce, so now the bakkie has some sort of fishtail movement when I exceed 90km/h 4. The final nail to the coffin, the handbrake doesn’t “grip” properly. You try to engage it and it falls on its own.

I repeat, this is a platinum badge vehicle, which means it is good to go, it has no issues. I paid a premium amount cause I didn’t want to deal with repair issues that come with green badged vehicles.

I bought bakkie for business purposes but in its current form, it will get me into a lot of legal troubles, now it’s parked in my yard and I have to pay for it from my pocket, I bought a liability 😢. I sent an email to Weelee and they are ignoring me, their after sales really, really suck.

I no longer want this car, there is nothing platinum about this bakkie. I decided to rather buy a new bakkie from Mahindra cause goed koop is duur Koop.
