I cannot wait any longer for resolution on getting my vehicle repaired. Upon my return I am coming to your facility to either collect my running vehicle, or collect the parts and receive a refund for services not rendered. I am not unreasonable but it is 9 months since our initial engagement and the last time I came to your facility my block was lying on the floor exactly where it was when you received it...and my vehicle was under 6 months of dust...doesn't make me feel confident anything has happened on it at all. Please feel free to let me know if you think I am being unfair in this regard...but my next step failing a resolution on my return will be a legal one. 2025/08/04, 10:09 - Devlin Griggs: Hinwayne,I am back from the US 2025/08/04, 10:09 - Devlin Griggs: Please can you advise what the status of my vehicle is 2025/08/04, 10:11 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: Great, welcome back, just checking on tensionerz they promised end july, the said on friday they waiting for delivery, i will phone them later today and update you 2025/08/08, 12:14 - Devlin Griggs: 2025/08/14, 13:00 - Devlin Griggs: Hi Wyne...how ar ethings going 2025/08/14, 13:00 - Devlin Griggs: please send me some pictures 2025/08/14, 13:01 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: Fine will do 2025/08/19, 14:42 - Devlin Griggs: 2025/08/19, 14:43 - Devlin Griggs: Hey Wayne,how is it going? 2025/08/19, 14:43 - Devlin Griggs: Where are the pictures please 2025/08/19, 14:44 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: 2025/08/21, 11:25 - Devlin Griggs: Hi Wayne, you promised me some pictures... 2025/08/21, 11:26 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: 👍 2025/08/22, 08:38 - Devlin Griggs: Hi Wayne, still no pics? 2025/08/22, 08:39 - Devlin Griggs: I thought my vehicle was supposed to be done and dusted this week? 2025/08/22, 08:42 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: I was also hoping so, but hit a series of pbms, parts missing, but not to worry, almost all or all are sorted out, i had extea parts from a car i stripped 2025/08/22, 08:46 - Devlin Griggs: OK, please send me some pictures so I can see the progress... 2025/08/22, 08:46 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: Will do, and i am making sure this engine will last 2025/09/01, 08:14 - Devlin Griggs: 2025/09/01, 08:16 - Devlin Griggs: Just letting you know its now been a year since you had the vehicle 2025/09/01, 08:16 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: I am aware, and i am busy with it 2025/09/03, 08:34 - Devlin Griggs: Hibwayne please send me some photos 2025/09/03, 08:39 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: Will do this afternoon, picking up sparws in jhb now 2025/09/03, 09:46 - Devlin Griggs: Please don't forget...I want to see the progress 2025/09/03, 09:48 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: Wont forget , wrote your name on my hand 2025/09/03, 09:48 - Wayne Range Rover Repair: IMG-20250903-WA0005.jpg (file attached) 2025/09/05, 09:36 - Devlin Griggs: Hi Wayne...once again no pictures, no updates...sigh 2025/09/05, 09:38 - Devlin Griggs: Please prep the vehicle to be moved.
