A Gauteng motorist has become embroiled in an ongoing dispute with a local dealership after claiming that a vehicle he purchased was sold with misleading information regarding its mileage history and prior condition.
Jan Joubert Jooste purchased a 2019 Toyota Corolla from GP Combrink Car Sales CC towards the end of 2025 through finance provided by Absa. The vehicle was purchased for approximately R230,000, with monthly repayments of more than R5,200 before the account was eventually settled.
According to Jooste, the sales agreement recorded the vehicle's mileage at 76,569km at the time of purchase.
Jooste said the issue started when he discovered alleged irregularities in February 2026 after he took the vehicle in for a routine service at Toyota.
