Breach of Purchase Contract : Refusal to Service the Car and Refusal to Carry out the 3 year 75,000KM service all of which is Documented / Complaint against Dr Martin Zimmermann CEO Mercedes Benz South Africa

They refused to carry out the 3 year 75,000km service in terms of the Contract and the Service contract. This is in contravention of various sections of the National Credit Act 34 of 2005  and various sections of the Consumer Protection Bill 68 of 2008 and in direct violation of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa Act 108 of 1996 and its various amendments.

The Previous Commissioner Adv Mohlala  was aware of the Complaint. 

We have made repeated requests to Mercedes Benz to sort out various problems and to date no reaction.

We have also forwarded a Letter of Demand to their CEO Dr Martin Zimmermann a German National, and there has been no response to our Complaint.

It is clear that he has a no care attitude to the Problem and a total disregard  to the Laws of South Africa or any of the Acts in place to protect the South African Consumer.

We are there demanding from them you the sum of R 250,000-00 (Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Rands) damages and a public apology.

Additionally :

We think it is time that the NCC made an example of Mercedes Benz and levelled the Maximum Fine  of 10% of their turnover plus a fine of R 5,000,000-00 on Dr Zimmermann.  

They are also in Contravention of Section 68 of the National Credit Act 34 of 2005

                           plus a Armed Attack with Firearms on my home and placing the safety of my family at risk.

Because of the Serious nature of their actions we have forwarded the case to the NPA, for Criminal Prosecution. 

They are also in contravention of the FICA rules, and a separate Case has been opened, demanding a full FICA Audit. 

They have  has not responded to any of our emails, or requests for a meeting. We have been unable to get Dr Martin Zimmermann to answer any of our emails ( see PDF File attached ) and visit   http://www.nameandshame.biz/mercedes.htm  He hides behind a lady called Karola Block who blocks his calls and emails.

Mercedes Benz Refuse to service Cars - Breach of Contract

I booked my Mercedes Benz for service at the Mercedes Benz centre in Bryanston. ( 3years 75,00 km although the car has only done 35,000km )

I was later called by the service department  manager Mr Viz Pillay who refused to service the car as he said I was lying as regards the KM that I have given. We believe that this was racially motivated as was the previous encounter we had with him.

WARNING - Mercedes are Repossessing Cars taken in for Service

I booked my Mercedes Benz for service at the Mercedes Benz centre in Bryanston.

I was later called by the service department  that my car was Reposssed and taken to the auction floor for sale

I was informed that when I booked my car for service the system notified Mercedes finance and so they were waiting for the car to be taken for service in order to repossess.

I was totally shocked. I then made contact with Mrecedes Benz finance (MBF) they told me I was 1&1/2month in arrear.

I was totally bewildered as i don't understand why the could nt just call me and ask me to pay. It's strange that I was only a month and a half in arrears and they took such drastic measures.

This was the most embarrassing day of my life. I was late at work and could not take my kids to the doctor.

I got my car back after settling the account and they charged me R4,000 in legal fees.

No apology for the mishap at accounts was given and when I took the car back for service the staff laughed at me and gave strange faces.

Be warned if u owe on your car and financed at MBF they will collect your car when u take it for service at any Mercedez outet.

Watch out for the Bryanston branch.

Very cagey company.

Legal action

A business was liquidated 3 months ago and as a result M/Benz finacial Services brought an action against the business and myself.After meeting with their attorneys Strauss Daly where it was agreed that no proper surety was in place and hence no action against me could be taken.They agreed.
Now they pursue the action against myself only, even after their attorney has advised me that he has councelled them on the issue yet they ask him to "take his chances in court" and he says that he is working under instructions. wish they would accept the issue for what it is and stop making my life miserable.I do not have the time ,energy nor resources to fight this.

Incorrectly listed on ITC

I have been trying to get hold of someone who can assist me from Merc Finan cial Service, I spoke to a Mariette on Monday who made me send more information with regards to my name being listed by Merc on ITC.I then emailed everything and she advised that someone who is dealing with this will call me back, tuesday went by and now almost wednesday is going by.I am soo angry and frustrated, I have always seem Merc as an upmakert company but now I beleive their staff is incompetent.Just because I am not a client of them or dont add to their revenue then the feel the right not to attend me, mind you I also dont wanna deal with Merc given the fact that they incorrectlt list people and dont provide feedback once that specific person complains.
Can I please get someone to assist me, this is my future we are talking about, being listed for a judgement for over a MILIION RANDS is not a good reflection on my credit profile.I need to buy property but am unable to due to Merc. I realy am gonna use every channel to expose Merc for such negligence.

My ex husband's car was registered in my name. He recently sold this car and the amount was settled with Mercedes Benz Finance.

Mercedes Benz Finance debited my account with the full installment today. After I spoke to them beginning October, after they called me more than once to confirm and inform that the amount is settled and that no payments will be deducted off my account.

So I call them to enquire *** is going on. Nobody knows. Eventually get put through to someone who asks me more than once if I am sure the money has gone off my account. Then tells me "Oh sorry the money isn't reflecting in our account yet so we can't help you". OK so if you have taken the money off my account and you don't have it, where is it.

So now *I* have to call them tomorrow again, to inquire if MY money is now reflecting in their account and then wait another however long for them to pay back MY money that they had NO right to deduct of MY bank account in the first place.

Another prime example of how we are being ripped off by financial institutions. I am the 99%

Complaint against Mr Viz Pillay 

I called Sandown Motors Bryanston to make an appointment for a second service for my Mercedes Benz..

I was put through to a female  by the name of Ash who demanded my Registration number and ID in order to book an appointment for a service, 

I refused to disclose my ID  ( there is no legal obligation for anybody to disclose an ID number in order to book a service ) and when I gave her my Registration number xxx   GP she insisted that I give her a ‘’proper registration no’’ with numbers in order to book a service. 

She appears to lack basic intelligence insisting that she only takes bookings with registration numbers with numbers. 

I demanded to speak to another consultant which she refused to allow me to do. 

Upon my persistence I was put through to Paul van der Walt who made the booking and confirmed that I would be given a lift to my office and also confirmed additional information which I required on my motor plan. He acted on a very Professional Basis. 

I then received a call from a very cheeky person a Mr Viz Pillay who started shouting at me for daring to raise my voice to his incompetent booking agent  Ash .

At that moment the Telkom Lines to the entire area were cut by a subcontractor, and all our lines went dead . 

I arrived at Sandown Motors Bryanston  on Friday morning 6th May at 07:45 as arranged by Paul van der Walt for my service.

I was told that Mr Viz Pillay had Cancelled the service on my Car much to the laughter of the Group of ‘’Men in Black’’ ’ who Mr Pillay had surrounded himself with. 

He said that Sandown Motors would never service my car. 

He accused me of being a racist, but then this is the common attack in South Africa today when Customers dare to complain of bad service, and bad manners from a Service Provider,. 

As I have paid for a Maintenance Contract / Motor Plan to Service my Car I am serving Breach of Contract Notices on Sandown Motors and Mercedes and disclosing the Behaviour of your Service manager Mr Viz Pillay  to the Engineering Profession and will have  Mr Viz Pillay and Sandown Motors on Name and Shame.

I've been having our Cars serviced by Sandown Motors Bryanston since they opened. Prior to this, the same staff used to service our vehicles in Strydom Park. Everything was fine. Their service was fantastic, the cars were ready on time, faults were repaired the 1st time - in short they were on a roll.
This year however, something has gone wrong - cars are never ready on time (sometimes by days), repairs are not completed successfully, and their fault diagnosis is pathetic Mr Viz Pillay the service manager always has a story and never keeps any of his promises, and when I went to collect it it still failed. I waited for hours for them to sort it out, but they couldn't and in the end had to leave the car there for another week..

Sent an Mercedes Benz  for repairs to wheel alignment, cruise control, number plate noise & seatbelt latch. When my spouse picked up the car, she old me the visit was chargeable as apparently the wheel alignment was out and beyond adjustment and was likely pot-hole related. I spoke to the Mr Pillay about providing a report.

What I got back was 2 handwritten lines on an A4 paper advising that some suspension parts need replacement. I wasn't happy so I phones the dealership the whole of the next day and got a response around lunch time. I told Koos that I needed the report from the wheel alignment machine that supports their recommendation. He promised to check with the service advisor.

Mr Pillay phoned again and claimed that the report was not printed and was not stored on the system 

This is the last time I buy a car at Sandown Motors as I am not prepared to deal with people like Mr Pillay

I Booked my vehicle in for wheel alignment & Aircon to be fixed. Poor service as the consultant only advises me late that afternoon that only the wheel alignment was done & the Aircon part has to be replaced, I could not leave the vehicle overnight but it was agreed that once the part for the Aircon arrives, the consultant will advise me to bring in the vehicle.

 Well, that did not happen for a month, I call in again to a very unprofessional switchboard who does not know who the Customer Service Manager is. They say I should speak to a manager called Viz Pillay who apologised (seemed quite insincere to me) & 'promised' to call me back,

I get a call from Paul that same afternoon  and yet again another insincere apology and excuses for why this booking has gone wrong.

As  I write this I have not heard a word...needless to say I am driving around with an Aircon that does not work, spent a holiday in KZN without the AC working... I am now highly frustrated and deeply shocked about the poor customer service being received even after I escalated my concern.

To add to this - it is my second experience with poor service from Mr Viz Pillay!!!!

We have received a letter on 15th June 2008 from MBenz Financial Services signed by Lin Reed Management Board Member informing me of an Interest rate Adjustment on my MBenz car loan.

I paid off the car early in October 2007 ( at 32 months, of a 60 month contract ), which was 8 months ago as I was not prepared to deal with a company who violated their clients and failed to Comply with the requirements of the National Credit Act 34 0f 2005.

All the dates shown in the letter don’t tie up indication gross incompetence.( They have recreated letters changing and backdating dates before )

Even in settling the outstanding amount, they misrepresented the facts and penalty interest ( They fine you for paying off a car early ) and took a further payment from my bank after I had settled.( We have a email stating that they would not take any further payments.

They have illegally removed money from my bank account for insurance, sent registered letters of demand for Insurance premiums when they were up to date then under threat of legal action from me refunded the money. They have back dated insurance letters, removed increased Insurance premiums and taken out double They have showered me with gifts, to stop me exposing them and the list goes on. When I purchased the car they misrepresented the facts in their adverts, the interest payment does not tie up with the monthly payment and then demanded a further deposit, They told me I was buying a new 2005 Elegance model, but all the documents show it as a 2004 classic.

I am making application to the National Credit regulator to have you removed as a credit provider, will full Google Publicity We will also recover the money owed to me using the small claims court with maximum publicity

This must be the most dishonest and Incompetent Company in South Africa
