American Fanatics Services & Repairs

I MADE THE WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE, by giving my car to Melvyn of American Fanatics in December 2020, with an engine that was not running. I eventually got my car back on the 5th February 2021. I paid them a total of R84k to have the car fixed. I immediately noticed that the engine light was on and immediately brought it to Melvyn’s attention, to which he said it would disappear as I drove the car. I trusted him and drove home. Needless to say, the engine light remained on. The following day I noticed that the car was also leaking some oil. I took it back to him on 10th February 2021, to have the engine light and oil leak fixed. I collected the car again on 13th February, with everything apparently fixed. To my dismay, the engine light came back on before I could even reach home, which led me to believe that he simply deleted the error messages from the car’s ECU. The following day, I noticed more oil leaks than before. I returned the car to him once more on the 15th February 2021. My car stayed at Melvyn’s workshop for 4 years and 5 months, with him making every excuse under the sun and refusing to give back my car. Thanks to X-Repo, Mojalove Dstv show who eventually came to my rescue to get my car back. My car is now in a worse condition than before. The engine light is still on with the car in LIMP mode, the oil leak is excessively high, the steering wheel controls are not working, the front passenger window is not working, the window washer fluid reservoir is broken, the MISSING stop/start button. I will never recommend American Fantastics to anyone ever.
