CONSUMER ISSUES
A WESTERN Cape man has found himself trapped in a nightmare after purchasing a brand-new R1.2 million BMW electric car that was left defective due to a faulty wall box installation.
Ronald Craig Smith expected a seamless journey with his new car; instead, he faced a litany of issues stemming from faulty wall box installation, leading to frustration and mounting concerns over the vehicle's reliability.
The saga began when Smith bought an iX1 xDrive30 Xline at BMW Paarlberg, influenced by a promotional package that included complimentary wall box installation and a year of free insurance. He took delivery of the car on November 6, 2023. “The motor vehicle was brand new and in perfect working condition,” he said.
