Westvaal Somerset west is the worst!!!!!!

Worst experience ever!!!!! I wouldn't recommend anyone to go there.

I had my car locks changed, when I called them I asked whether they drop and pick customers up from Somerset West to Stellenbosch the sales consultant said yes. I had to pay up front for the parts and labour.

When the parts arrived, I had to make an appointment and only then they informed me that they don't drop and pick up customers in Stellenbosch. So I asked for a refund that I will go somewhere else instead, as they taking my car I obviously have no transport to get to Stellenbosch. When they found out I already paid they told me they will make a plan to drop me and pick me up.

I called again to confirm my appointment and then said they will make a plan, I can come on Thursday.

I get this morning at Westvaal Somerset West, they tell me there is no appointment on their system, however they still booked my car in.

When asked if I needed a lift I said yes to Stellenbosch. They told me they don't go to Stellenbosch. I informed them that I arranged this with them as I already paid in advance. So they said fine, they will drop me.

The workshop manager argued in front of me with the driver that they not dropping me. After I insisted I will take a refund, they told me they will make a plan. Now they are more angry!!!! It's so unprofessional to argue in front of a customer.

Eventually I do get dropped and later the day they inform me, they won't be fetching me. They have my car, how on earth do I get from Stellenbosch to Somerset West!!!!

I called GM customer complaint services and filed a complaint. A hour later GM calls don't worry the driver from Westvaal Somerset West will come pick me up.

Eventually they do fetch me at 5:30pm and I get 6pm in Somerset West as I was fetched last.

When I collected my car, I was told unfortunately they didn't get to wash my car as there was 40 cars to wash. I was third in the queue I got there at 6:40am. There policy is first come first serve. How is my car not washed when I was third in the freaking queue???????

The worst service ever, I'm never going there again. I would never buy any car from the GM brand if this is the service you will be getting after GM leaves South Africa.

It's unfortunate that I had to experience such services yesterday, but I am really glad my complaints were heard. Westvaal Somerset West really man up when they called this morning to apologise for their bad service as they strive for excellence. They will be appointing an extra driver which will provide shuttle services to Stellenbosch. They arranging to have my car washed in Stellenbosch. I am really grateful that they responded to my compliants and in such a short period of time. ☺️
