when asked to dealer he is blaming the company for the delay. and if he is right i must say the company is not professional and they should stop writing COUNT ON US.
I have lot more to write but for now i just expect that you ll get back to me and assist solving this matter.
thank you.

I have got my car (ZEN model2003) serviced at Berkeley Automobile phase II Ihave Cahndigarh on 25/01/2008. I have carried oil and filter along with me. But service manager has refused to accept the oil and filter. because it is compulsory to buy the supplied by the service station. I would like to tell you that I have using CASTROL MAGNATIC engine oil since first free service. So i would like to know that is it necessory to buy oil supplied by the service station. So I had to go to unauthorised shop for changing oil. I have written to your regional office also but I am sorry to say that brought no rrsponse.
Thank you

Yours truelly

Hi,

I have booked Maruti Swift (LXI) ON 3rd Feb 2008..at competent Automobiles in Central Mkt. At the time of the booking i have been told that will get the delievery in 3 weeks..After that again when i called to confirm again i got a new date..i.e 5 march 2008.and this time they surely said that will get the car..

Till now i havnt recieved the delievery of the car..and even the dealer is not sure when they can give the delievery. They just said that this car is in waitin... i dont understand HOW MUCH SHOULD A CUSTOMER WAIT..

I just want that my concern will be resolved..!

Thanks.!

An Appeal - Pls. Guys Stop Purchasing Maruti

Now a Days Maruti is worst company, which i have seen inmy life more over i will not hesitate to say it as worst than public sector org.

1) This company always talk about Customer satisfaction but don't Know its definition actually.

2) Sure Maruti is Enjoying its 13% + Growth, that is why it doesn’t effect if 2/3 % customers cat. they loose .

3) Dealers are worst than local (can’t write here) as they have no prob. to retain customers as demand is very high. (Always ready to say lena hai to nahi to jao)

4) Dealer made their own rules.(Like sahookars)

5) Any time Maruti not respond any time or not in whole life for aam aadmi problems./RO nobody presents on seats either they are always busy in meetings or dealer visits .
(Sorry it’s a use less effort)

6) Powerful persons can buy any time maruti even without advance booking even directly from maruti factory . (Same Day any model)

More over its is begg. even after spend lakhs of ruppes .

If this happens this company will be shut down in 10 years.

But we are common person like a dog who always bark..

Atleast I’ll not buy my next car from maruti in future (Rest depends on other ppls. But no doubt soon they will realize ) Hindustan me bheed chal hai)

(I wish I can publish it in news paper as I have community of ppls. With me of similar problems ) but it’ll take time as papers deny as maruti is biggest advertised with them/// wht a myth

Cheers ...

Best Regars,
Mamuli Aadmi

Sir,
This is in reference with the Maruit WagonR-VXI Car which i have purchased on Sepetember 06 from Alpha Automobiles Faridabad.
During the time of purchase there were lot of promises which Alpha has given to me like.

-As i told them that there would be litt delay in the Servicing the Car as i will be travelling abroad most of the time.
They told me that no problems you will get your Free three services when ever you want and also will give me 4th service as Free.
As Alpha is closed down i went to the service station of VIPUL Motors Faridabad.They treated me a step brother and told me that they will charge for the 3rd service

-They had charged Rs 2500/- for the Black Rubber coat paint for 5 Years.
As Alpha is closed down now who will fulfill this.

There are lot more problems which are not been resolved by the Engineers..

Thanks

DEAR MANAGER,

My name is Harpreet Singh working with Max New York life as a manager.

Recently i had bought a maruti swift on 17 nov from rohan motors.at the time of delivery your
Employee Mr. Ranjeet singh who is working as a sales representative in rohan motors told me me to pay a down payment of Rs.95000/ including
Insurance, at that time i paid him the full amount and take away the car.
After few months in April med your employee mr ranjeet singh called me and told me that i had to pay 1 EMI to rohan motors again as rohan motors had got one EMI
Shor t from the bank.
Then i questioned mr ranjeet that why this emi comes so late after 4 months you are telling me to give 9250/ rs imm, i asked him to give me the details
of my track or something else like any proff to whether i had to pay this or not then he told me to ask from the bank,
then i went to my bank and i did'nt got any clear situation from them, then i again came to mr ranjeet and asked for the clarifications, he refused and told me
that if you will not pay this amount it will be deducted from my salary, ther i got some trust on him and paid the emi to ranjeet, he give me a computer
Generated word sheet where it was written that payment given to rohan motors.
when i saw that slip i found that it was really very different from the orignal recipts of rohan motors which i had receive earlier.
i didn’t asked anything and went to my work.
Few days ago again this gentleman called me up and told me that there is some 1000/ rs again balanced from my side, i asked him what the hell your services
are there, on daily basis you are coming here and asking me for some amount of money then he keep silent, then i told him to not to call today and tomorrow as iam very busy in office
After that i will pay you the amount, then again on same night he again called me up and said pl give this
Amount otherwise this will again stuck from my salary, i got frustated and told him this is not the right time its already 10:00pm
better to call me tomorow, he refused and started shouting that u have to give this amount feel so embarrassed that for only rs 1000 he is calling me and shouting on me i
imm. cut my phone, that night he called me twice and thrice but i didn’t pick the ph.
next day in evening he come to my home when i was not there and he again he done the same thing with my old mother, but my mom didn’t pay and when i came back she
Was having a low BP.
then i called him and asked why you had come to my home then he again talk very badly, then i told him not to call me now i will discuss all these
things from your head office and from maruti.

Now please clarify me that whether that payment which I had paid was true or not.
And please take some actions on your customer services.

My car registration number is UK-07-V-3285 SWIFT-LDI-WHITE COLOUR

kindly take this complaint on a high priority basis.

Palm Gurgaon Road,
Gurgaon-122015.

Dear Sir,
Ref:- Invoice No: 24234, Dt: 12.05.2008 by your dealer M/s Orbit
Motors Pvt. Ltd., Civil Township, Rourkela-769004.

I am to draw your kind attention that I have purchased Maruti Swift LDI in my son’s name. The vehicle was taken delivery on 26.03.2008 after discussion held with Mr. Barik & Mr. Dua with a condition that our Banker will pay by 21.04.2008 and not before that.

Unfortunately our Banker delayed the matter and finally we paid the amount on 17.05.2008. When we approached for Registration of vehicle the dealer claimed interest Rs.8806 /- from date of delivery as we have failed to pay within the month of April and refused to make Regn. unless the amount is paid. Since their MD Mr. Dua was away to Germany; after much persuation and approaching Mr. Barik on daily basis on 28th May they agreed to make Regn after receiving post dated cheque for Rs.8806 /-. In this connection we want to state that: -

1. While discussion that payment will be made by 21.04.2008 neither Mr. Barik, nor Mr. Dua specifically told the undersigned that if you fail to pay in time interest will be charged from day one only. They claim we should have read challan signed by us while taking delivery.

2. Any benefit given to consumer cannot be withdrawn under any pretest or circumstances

3. For delay beyond our commitment we readily agreed to pay interest.

4. We requested the dealer to make Regn without delay and retain the documents with them and once your MD is available, we shall settle the matter and take all papers. Request was turned down and adopting such coercive measures is painful and we strougly protest for the same.

5. We protest interest charged from day one as illegal and beyond law; hence, request and demand refund of excess interest charged.

After return of Mr. Dua when the undersigned met him with a request to charge interest for delay beyond agreed date; his way of talking, body language totally changed and has uttered many unwanted words which we never expected from Mr. Dua and instead simply he could have turndedown our request. I have taken the whole episode in bad taste and is really painful that a man of his stature could change his attitude so drastically. Since; we live in same locality a common friend is witness to the whole episode.

I am using solely Maruti Cars only since 1992 as apart from Swift purchased now. I am holding the following cars in name of :-

(1) S.K Jain Maruti 800 Car no: WB-02-6510
(2) Gaurav Jain ______do_____ Car no: OR-14F-6441
(3) Sushila Jain ______do_____ Car no: OR-14N-1541

being purchased from M/s Orbit only.

May be this episode will change our mind to shift our loyalty to some other brand.

If the matter is not sorted our amicably, our refund claim awaits legal follow up.

Thanking You,
Yours Faithfully

Dear Shri

I have purchased a Esteem VXI model in March, 2007. During this monsoon car was parked at outside the home. There was more water on the road up to the level of some more than bottom portion of the door. I found that water was coming inside from the fixed panel which is part of the fixed body which touches at the door's bottom portion. This panel is the portion between floor and door's bottom portion.

I have removed the mate from bottom and take the car at Amar Motors Pvt. Ltd. as Bardoa (Gujarat) showroom which is a well known and big showroom in Baroda (Gujarat).

With my surprise technician told that it is normal matter and water should come inside from that panel. I told what is the reason to leave gap for water to come inside when door are tightly fitted and floor has been closed with rubber bush. They don't know the reason.

This is the manufacturing defect of the Maruti Udyog Ltd. Quality check has not been done properly.

I found lot of car having this complain on the day at showroom. No senior man was there to explain the solution to customer.

This is the real present position of Maruti quality and service at show rooms.

Sai Service Station, Deccan Gymkhana, Pune.

Issue: My Maruti Wagon - R was given for general service and there was not a single fault in vehicle while giving for

servicing. Post servicing I checked the vehicle in which observed that the car was not working properly for 2nd and

3rd gear. It was totally stopped on one signal which was about 8 kms from service station post delivery. When called

service station, two mechanics came on site and observed the car saying that the car "inductors" needs to be replaced

and they are not working. I was surprised to get this reply because before giving car for servicing it was working

absolutely fine. They told me to replace the "inductors" which costed me extra for Rs. 3700/- (1800/- for each) which

was adhoc and unnessecery expenditure for me.

I want to do complaint of this service station because before giving my car to service station it was absolutely

working fine with no such problem.

Need to investigate why it has happened.

Claim: Need to have return money Rs. 3700/- which was asked on adhoc basis for replacement of these engine "inductors"

Dear Sir,

I got one Swift Dzire booked at a Dealer in meerut viz. Rajsneh Auto India Pvt. Ltd. said booking was done in the month of July 2008 and it was told to them that it is to be given as a marriage gift so make sure that the delivery does not gets delay and last to be 28th of August.
later we were communicated that the expected date is 3rd or 4th of September. As the date on which the gift was to be given is 5th of september hence we still got agreed. But today on 3rd of September Mr. Manoj Kumar, Sales manager gave us a call saying it will not be possible to arrange the delivery.
They have already banked INR 5, 35, 000/- . Please take some corrective action at the ealiest.

Dear Sir,

First I would like to introduce myself; I am Kailash Mudliar working with well known electronic retail company as commercial head for m.p.

I have purchased Maruti omni one year back on 31.07.07 from your dealer Patel Motors and felt very proud to become a member of MARUTI FAMILY; now I am forced to make complaint, since I am not satisfied with the service provided by the Dealer in last one month; they are well in reminding to the customer for the due dates for servicing & insurance. But the service which they are providing is very pathetic.

Since my third servicing was due so I had given my vehicle to Patel motors on 26.07.08 for just routine servicing. When I had taken the delivery of the vehicle I noticed that the door of driver side is not locking properly which I informed to the dealer, to rectify the problem the dealer had sent there technician to my residence; he has bent the door with hands and informed me that the problem has been rectified and I also felt that time the door was looking properly, but when I went for drive I noticed that the problem is still there which once again I informed to the dealer.

Again on 13.08.08 when I had given vehicle for washing, I informed the service supervisor to check the problem, but when I went to service center in the evening to take the delivery of the vehicle I found that the problem was not rectified and even not attended, when I enquired with the service supervisor then only he called a mechanic to rectify the problem, immediately mechanic brought hammer and started hammering on small iron rod provided on body of the vehicle to look the door without observing what is the actual problem, PLEASE TELL ME CAN CUSTOMER WILL TOLERATE THIS, when he could not rectify the problem I had been told to take the vehicle to body shop.

When I refused to go to body shop alone, the service supervisor accompanied with me, again there also the person who was attending my vehicle started twisting / bending the door without observing the reason, when he was just trying all this I observed that the driver seat was getting jerks when the door is pushed to lock, this I have informed to the person and very surprised that driver seat was not properly fixed due to which the door was not getting properly locked. Since so many experiments have been made with the door still the door is not getting properly locked.

Further on 31.08.08 when I have inserted the key to start the vehicle, I shocked when I noticed that the battery was totally discharged, immediately I called the authorized Exide service center to check the battery and he informed me that the cell of the battery is totally dry and might not be recovered. I GOT SURPRISED HOW THE CELLS CAN BE DRY WHITHIN A MONTH AS THE LAST SERVICING WAS DONE ON 26.07.08., when I confirmed with the dealer whether they do the inspection of the battery in routine free service as per the free service book or not, he confirmed me that the same is being inspected and in the counter of the third service coupon it is marked as checked, when it is checked on 26.07.08 how it can be dry in 36 days.

DUE TO THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE DEALER THE BATTERY GOT DAMAGED AND COULD NOT BE RECOVERED EVEN AFTER 24 HOURS PUTTING IT ON PROPER CHARGING, IS THIS TYPE OF FREE SERVICE BEING PROVIDED BY MARUTI UDYOG LTD, CAN YOU TELL ME WHO WILL BEAR THE LOSS?

Now I have doubt whether the dealer has changed / filled or not the engine oil, Break oil, front wheel bush for which they have charged amount from me during the free service check up.

This I had informed on your help line [protected] on 31.08.08 itself but not received any response from Maruti Udyog ltd.

Since I am also from service company I know very well how important is single customer also & how we can satisfy the loyal customer.

Thanks,

Kailash Mudliar

THANK YOU

I have purchased Wagon R Lxi bearing chassis No.- 446427 and Registration No. DL-9CM-9651 on 29-09-06. M/S Competent Automobiles CO. Ltd. Mehrauli has done all the services free/paid. Today i.e. on 13-09-08 I took my vehicle for some complaints, to the workshop and I was shocked to see the mismanagement and behavior of the staff of M/S competent motors. The work manager Mr. Khan was not able to control his staff, no supervisor was available and a very big queue of vehicle was there and no one was ready for the inspection of vehicles. Preparation of Job card took one hour and the service/repair work done was of very poor quality. Again a very big queue was there on the counter, for the preparation of bill and there was also mismanagement and the staff was misbehaving with the customers. The preparation of the bill took one hour. Regarding this mismanagement and the misbehavior of the staff, I met with the work manager Mr. Khan and told him that I will make a complaint to MUL regarding this, his reply was “You can, who cares”
In view of the above I suggest your good self to have a surprise visit of the workshop and stop such type of acts, which gives a bad name to MUL. As you are very well aware, this is a time of competition and at this time the harassment and misbehave to the customer by your authorized dealer proves to be very dangerous to MUL. I hope you will take appropriate action.

Dear sir, i m getting problem in back gear. i went many times to urs service satation many times but no solution is there. it's compeletly waste of time as well as money. Instead of solution, they said, it's gift from maruti company. Pls solve my problem on urgent basis, otherwise i'll have to go to consumer court for govt. help. I have ALTO.

Dear Sir,

Now the situation seems to be too embracing for me as your Apra service Station (Gurgaon sector 14 in building no 15A) technical head Mr. Sunil Gupta said to deliver the car on 20th November, 2008 (earlier promised for the delivery on 08th November, 2008) but failed to do so and promised to handover the car ( Maruti Zen, Reg. No. DL 2CN 9286 ) on 21st November, 2008, but when I called Mr. Sunil Gupta on 21st November, 2008 for the delivery of the car he told me that now the shocker of the car are damage and the staring wheel is also damage, which is not true. Will you please let me know when I will get my car back as each an every day you promises for the delivery of the car and backout on this by giving every time new reason.

Hoping for a reply from your side and positive response.

Thanks

Suresh Chand.

Second Part of the Story :-
Finally, on 12-november-08 police registered the FIR and on the same day the FIR was deposited at your workshop.
It was promised that the CAR would be delivered on 15-November-08, however it did not get delivered since the ECM device was not available.
Finally, on 22-November-08 I got the confirmation that I can collect the CAR.

At around 1500 hours I reached at your workshop ( today is 22-November-08 i.e. Saturday). All the formalities were performed in the Insurance Sector and I was asked that I Can take the CAR. Car was parked at the place where washing happens, in front of which another car was parked, I blowed the Horn so that someone can remove the car which was parked in front of me, on continuously blowing the Horn in spite of the fact that all the supervisors were watching me blowing the horn and the 3 people sitting outside the Customer Lobby (who prepare job sheet) noticed that but no one is coming. After 10 minutes of continuously blowing of horn finally 1 person came to get the car outside his name was MOHAMMAD ANWAR.

Story Begins Now –
MOHAMMAD ANWAR took the car outside however it was missing and was giving extra smoke from silencer. I turned it off restarted it, it never started.
Now the person who took the car out MOHAMMAD ANWAR straight away went inside to MAJOR MENOR – his response was what can I do go to the supervisor whose name is mentioned on it.
Then that men went to the Fat Lady who sits 90 Degree towards Cash Counter ( I suppose she is customer relation manager, who does not deserve that position, because it was my third interaction with her today and she was of no use and her name is SIMI MALIK I suppose). She said go to the Supervisor whose name is mentioned on the Job sheet why you are coming to me.
Then that men went to the Workshop supervisor whose name was MR. SINHA again his response was what can I do get it checked from the man who repaired it.
Finally, we came inside where phone are installed and that men dialed the number of the supervisor mentioned on the Job Sheet, in a mean while I Called ARUN from Insurance Team who came out along with the Supervisor.

They got the car inside, on opening the bonnet all the wires of CNG were unloosened and in the same condition I was about to take the CAR to my home. Firstly, they denied putting the wires back since the CNG was installed from outside, but finally they put all the wires back when I shouted on them as when the car was dropped CNG was fitted ( over here I don’t find a logic, do you guys uninstalled all the kits i.e. wires when the CNG car is dropped for service at ur workshop since those people got the CNG installed from outside).

In spite of the the fact that in the morning it was specifically told that I would be collecting the CAR today and the CAR was crosschecked by both the Supervisors still when I went to collect the CAR it did not even started with all the CNG wires loosened.

Bottom-line ---Over here I would like to express my views that what kind of staff is being hired by you who are least bothered about customers, they does not even know what customer service is, have you open up these big workshop to make fool of people and just to charge them without providing them services which have paid for. What can I Expect from other people when the people like MAJOR MENON, SIMI MALIK AND MR SINHA ( WORKSHOP SUPERVISOR ) are least bothered about customers who is unable to get to have a word with a person who can at least listen to the customer and let him know what could be done.

Now – when the CAR is with me.

Problem which I am Facing –
1) Gear Lever is still making Noise ( I had specified the problem to the supervisor and have paid for it check your bill )
2) Car is getting turned off if I remove the leg from the Race paddle.
3) Car is Missing on Petrol ( I had specifically mentioned the same to the Workshop Supervisor)
4) There is a hell lot of noise coming when we drive the CAR from where in don’t know.
5) It is taking long self to get the CAR started.

Now can somebody explain me after making the bill of approximately 17000 Rupees, is this the kind of service which you provide to your customers, above that I don’t think any action was taken against my first mail against anyone because I met the same people on 22-November-08 and all had big attitudes to show. No one was willing to help rather were pushing me from one department or place to another.

I want a formal communication in regards to the mail and would like to know what has to be done to get my CAR in up and running condition as I have paid the amount and did not get the service from your workshop. Also, the kind of harassment I went through and the wastage of time and number of phone calls which I made at your workshop.

+91 [protected] is my Father’s Number on whose name the CAR is Registered, I want all the communication to happen at my Mobile Number i.e. +91 [protected]

Note : - Hard copy of this mail would be couriered to you tomorrow i.e. 25-November-08 and the same copy would be Couriered to your Head Office address and Consumer Court.

To Whomsoever it may Concern.

This is to bring to your knowledge the kind of Experience which I Had dealing with Competent Automobiles today which is opposite Coca Cola Factory.

I called the Number in the Evening i.e. 011 – [protected]. Ritu picked up the phone I told her that ECM device got stolen from my Vehicle hence would like to have a word with someone who can help me out with the rate and if the same could be adjusted in Insurance. She said in next 10 min she will arrange a callback. I never got any call. I called again and this activity kept happening for around 1 hour. In 1 hour I made approximately 7-8 phone calls finally I got connected to someone who was not sure if ECM was covered under Insurance or not.

On Monday I again called Competent so get the confirmation if I can get the vehicle at the workshop today, again after 3-4 calls somehow I managed to spoke to someone in Insurance who told my all the formalities.

I called the Crane got the car Delivered outside your Workshop, paid 800 Rupees and the Crane went away.

I came inside had a word with the Supervisors who are standing outside so that he can get the car inside the gate, he simply denied and asked me to speak to someone inside, I again came inside and told to the group of people who sit next to Customer Lounge, those people told me to have a word with Insurance People. By this time I was totally frustrated and I paid 20 Rupees to Rickshaw wala and asked him push the car inside the Workshop.

Then, I went to Insurance Cabin – 3 people were sitting there however no one was bothered to speak to customers, one person who was not in uniform was busy on his phone, another one was again busy on phone and the third person was busy with customer and every now and then he was searching for basic needs such as pen, stabler pins, blank paper bottom line he was totally confused.

After requesting him for 5-6 times he finally came with me outside and reviewed the car, I asked him the Fuel Injector and Servicing is also required what has to be done in that case. He said I am from Insurance and I can only get ACM replaced. The supervisor standing next to him who was from Workshop I asked him what has to be done, he said asked the Insurance agent only he will do the needful. Finally, I gave up.

Then, we came inside the Insurance room, I was given wrong form to fill up, once I filled up the form, other person said why did you filled this form this is not correct one, I filled another form, then the first person who gave me the form said this is wrong form…..

Then, since I got my CAR converted to CNG on insurance it was not updated, he asked me to spoke to a lady named Neema I am not sure about the name, the lady who sits next to the Cash counter. She said we cannot do this please go back to Insurance Room.

I spend approximately 2 hours which were of no use. Finally, I came back since I did not have the correct FIR.

WRITING THIS MAIL SO THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS DID NOT FACE THE SAME PROBLEM WHICH I FACED TODAY IN THE MORNING. NOT SURE IF ANY ACTION WOULD BE TAKEN AGAINST ANYONE BUT WOULD LIKE TO UPDATE YOU THAT CUSTOMERS WHO COME AT YOUR WORKSHOP ALSO HAVE BUSY SCHEDULE AND SHOULD BE TREATED LIKE CUSTOMERS AND NOT LIKE DOGS. 2 HOURS WHICH I SPEND AT YOUR WORKSHOP TODAY WERE USELESS AND I WAS GETTING RUNAROUND FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER, IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU ORGANISED THINKS IN BETTER WAY AT YOUR WORKSHOP.

Dear Sir/Ma’am
I own a Maruti Swift VXI -DL2CAK3411-petrol, bought from Competent Motors, Lajpat Nagar on name of my firm M/S Ply Samrat India PVT LTD, just four months back. On 27th July ’09 when it was raining heavily in the city, I was driving my swift and water entered into the base of car making the floor carpets wet, flooding till my calves. The problem was shown to Maruti Sevice Master on 28.07.09 and they took the car for three days to dry the carpet charging me Rs.1103/- as per the Job Card Retail Invoice No.BR09009046, SA Name- Praveen K Sinha . The car was delivered to me on 30.07.09; the floor was dried but the reason behind water entering the floor of the car is still a mystery. There have been many times when me and my friends have driven other cars like Maruti 800, Maruti Alto, Tata Indica, Ford Fusion etc in the rainy season but such kind of an incident has never taken place. The cars are so well sealed, how the outside water can enter inside the car, cars can sink in the water not allowing water to flow inside experienced by many people I know then how could it happen to Maruti SWIFT. This seems to me as a manufacturing defect, Service station charging us for the same is unfair in the period of warranty. Maruti owes an explanation to me.
An answer is awaited form your end.
Kindly expedite and revert on priority

Thanks to Maruti Suzuki for their Services Although not many people believe in reincarnation but if any then i must say that i would have been really generous and kind in giving donations and grants in my last birth, which paid me in this birth by being Maruti's customer. I think I proudly boast being one of them, as only a Maruti customer can pay twice for the service which was not even accomplished once with satisfaction. The story of frustration and irresponsibility begins when the car which I own, Maruti Swift Vxi (DL4C AA 8541) starts suffering from clutch problem (I will be using animate words for my car as it is my true companion on Delhi roads) I visited DD Motors Wazirpur for the Clutch work, they did something (some things because they only know what they did as result was nothing) and handed over my car without any attendant, and I paid them... In exchange. So Many thanks to DD Motors Wazirpur.. But as I know my car, it was not cured properly and I had no fun driving it the way I used to. I informed DD Motors Wazirpur about the fact and told them that I am not satisfied with their work which they have done and I am not feeling that my car is having a new clutch set, so then after all this they finally sent an attendant at my residence for check up, that attendant felt the same problem which I have already mentioned above and then he did something amazing but my car could not resist his work so all went from bad to the worst. My car tried its best and I drove miles and miles but all in vain. Neither my car was happy nor I. It was still suffering from that problem and I could sense it. After thinking all above I decided to visit DD Motors Mayapuri as I considered them to be more trustworthy but as old saying goes that promises are kept to be broken so as trust. My car was hospitalized for two days and they charged me... For the treatment which was supposedly treated by DD Motors Wazirpur. More over I found few below discrepancies after service from DD Motors Mayapuri. Speedometer was not working - Coupler wire was not in place. Coolant bottle was not in place, I was feeling that bottle is verdict of hang till death. Bolt on Tappet cover is missing. Now paying for the service which is not at all satisfying and paying double the amount for nothing, I feel really great, and proud owner of Maruti product and really happy for the kind of service and attitude they have towards customer, they are so nice that they are not at all bothered to provide attendants for help, not only that they speak to customers so politely that it leaves one to be at least not more but being impressed by them. I think they can actually win an Olympic gold in arguments but alas there is no such competition, otherwise I would have got one more reason to boast being Maruti's customer. Nevertheless I am thankful to Maruti and their service centers DD Motors Wazirpur and DD Motors Mayapuri respectively for doing which was least expected out of them and god bless them for their deeds! I think I deserved all this humiliation and frustration for being Maruti car owner. In short I can not count on Maruti

Thanks/Vivek Bist

Dear Sir / mam

My friend Deepak Kakkar bought Alto LXI ( Temp HR-99 ECHQ / 6900) from your showroom. He is having technical problem with the car balance. When it goes to 70-75 kMP then it starts to give heavy vibration during running. It has been tried to repair in your workshop twice, but still there is no good result. Even the mechanic has told to my friend that he is not be able to repair this problem. Remember this problem can cause to accidental death. Who is going to take the responsibility of this? Please look into the matter. Its very dangers. Waiting for your kind response. Please reply me on the given email id or you can call me on the given no. Waiting for your kind response.

Dear Sir,
I took my car swift dezire(VDI) for 3 service at car key motors(Authorized service center-sikkim) and while opening the nut of the oil chamber the mechanic broke the nut as well as the seal of the nut. They were not having spare nut in their stock, in fact it was not found all over sikkim as well as silliguri. As a result my car was standing like a piece of a junk. kindly see to it that all the authorized service centers have to have spare parts of all the maruti cars in their stock and company have to take extra pain to check the stock of the authorised service centers. After sale s service has to be addressed soon by the company.

Sir,

I have booked Swift Vdi on Date : 25.08.09, from Krish Automotors (P) Ltd., Recipt Number - 3138, for Rs. 10, 000.00. That time they told me that I will be getting the delivery after 1 month or Maximum of 50 days, but as today its been around 2 months, and when I contacted them for the delivery, they told me that it will take around 45 days more.

They also said that if I want the delivery then I have to pay the whole amount ( Rs. 5, 50, 000.00) now, and I will get the Car after 20 days, when asked to dealer he is blaming the company for the delay. and if he is right i must say the company is not professional and they should stop writing COUNT ON US.

And now, I don't want get myself into this problem, but I also Need the car as soon as possible.
Once they also asked for the Premium amount of Rs. 15000 for quick delivery of the car, which is also known as Black Selling.

Kindly help me regarding this, and take a suitable action for this, as I wanted to gift this car to my sister on 9th November, 09 which is approaching really fast.

Whenever I go on that showroom, they gives excuses, and say that the executive whom you dealt with has left, or he is on leave, and I don't get any result of going there.

Please Help me regarding this.

Thanks & Regards,

Ashish Goel

I purchased my Wagon R Lxi from Aalianz Automobiles, Kamal Cinema, New Delhi on 26.6.2009. I am still waiting for my Registration Certificated (RC) which the dealer promised me to provide within one month. Now four months have been completed and no one is listening to my repeated requests. How much amount has been charged in the name of Road Tax is not written in any papers given to me. Can any responsible official of Maruti direct the said dealer to expedite the matter.

Hi, I have brought a maruti suzuki model zen estilo (DL2CAK 8982) in March 2010, but this car is having such a low quality material that both the front mirrors have been broken down. Also the service is so bad that nobody in Maruti station could get me the same parts of car, I think maruti does not make parts of cars after manufacturing again or there is some other reason, may be its cheap quality which the maruti is using for new cars only and it has lack of that cheap material.

if you can help me, even I request you to help me out.
Pls call me at [protected] in the evening
Thank you
Yogender kumar

I am also facing the problem because I had bought a Wagon R LXI duo for the past 18 month from Bimal Automobile Bangalore but the mileage complaint has not been rectified. I think only 8km when I run on gas and 10km on petrol. I think they from maruti co. cheat anyone for money.

I see there is common issue with all the dealers (who ever I know in channeai), even if go for a small adjustment they put bill for 10, 000 and climing that they done so many other works.

This happned to me with MSM, Ekkaduthangal and Popular Vehicles chennai

I have booked Swift VDI on 10th of Jan White color. At that time they have committed to deliver it within one month. Later when inquired they said the person who took booking has left the dealers showroom.. and now they are saying company is not providing proper supply so your car is getting delay.
The dealer is ACE Kudale Pune.
If this is the case then may i know the standard waiting period as per the company? also if there is long waiting period then why they commit such things to customers?
If i wont get any proper explanation I will be forced to go to consumer court.
Write me to a_s_g_23202@yahoo.com
