SOMEBODY PLEASE HEAR MY CRY!!!

Cars & Transport

I bought myself a BRAND NEW Chev Spark 1.2 L. I was so excited as this was my 1st car and decided on a NEW car because as a young woman I didnt want to be at risk of being stuck or something like that. I took delivery of the car on 14/11/2012.1 day after work in January i decided to take a drive home to Rustenburg, 20 min into my driving the car brakes just failed and i was lucky to be able to stop the car, after that it never started again. called the insurance and the car was towed to the nearest dealer which was Chevrolet in William Hunt in PTA. My car is under warranty, and after the car was assessed I was advised that it was a mechanical fault and the engine ceased. i was told i cant get a courtesy car because i called my insurance instead of them after the breakdown. but after i was almost FIRED was eventually given a courtesy car, with a cracked widscreen and was as dirty as . but i accepted it as i was desparate. Since i have been told they fitting in a new engine. I think its unfair cause i wont have proof that its a new engine and might breakdown again. I feel if the car is new, and only owned it for less than 2 months i should get a new 1. i feel so cheated!!
