She said:

"Please be careful when you’re taking your car for a service to Hyundai Springfield in Durban. What they did to me was unacceptable; they pretended to work on my car, only to realise that nothing was done or changed after spending so much money.
"I then sent an e-mail to the regional manager, Mark and cc’d Ranjith, who is in charge at Hyundai Springfield in Durban, without any luck. Now my intention is for you not to fall into the same trap. Be aware."

The actress further shared that she paid nearly R40 000 for nothing as they didn't do what they had to do.

She said:

"Most of my colleagues rely on a trusted mechanic, so I decided to take my car to him, especially after my concerns. It had been a few days since I had it serviced at Hyundai Springfield, and I was shocked when he told me they didn’t do much, particularly if they sense you’re not familiar with cars."
