Dondolo's video was shared on South Africa Live's Facebook page on Tuesday and it went viral, reaching over 76 000 views in less than a day.

“Yesterday I went to run an errand. When the time came to leave, my car wouldn't start. Called roadside assistance was told 'car out of warranty , called insurance and was told they will tow it to East London or PE," Dondolo said.
She added: "My cousin's colleague passes and asks what's wrong. I tell him and he says, while you calling your insurance, let me bring you a mechanic.“

A 15-year-old learner then helped Dondolo fix up the car and she did not have to take the vehicle in.
