Consumer Panel: Protecting South Africa's Consumers

As of the 1st of April 2011, South African consumers became some of the most protected in the world. This is due to the implementation of extremely progressive legislation.

I bought a used vehicle from a dealer 5days ago. they told me six times that the only problem is the front tyre and the roof lining. VEHICLE IN A GOOD RUNNING CONDITION. I drove the vehice once and found tappit noise in the engine. They told me the engine was redone and need to run in. We took the vehicle back and they only refitted the clutch cable after it was the wrong way around. The noises they still said it is not a machanical defect. It runs in. Today the gearbx started winding as well aside from the engine noise. We found the shocks is finished and feel we made a bad purchase. What can we do. I nly have the vehicle 4 days
