[Resolved]  Maruti Suzuki — Maruti Suzuki's incompetent service

Through this forum I advise the Maruti Suzuki's top officials to awake,


Mr. R.C. Bhargava
Chairman Maruti Suzuki




Dear Mr. Bhargava,

I behold a last ray of hope which is why I have finally decided to write to you after having begged before all officials of Maruti Suzuki to rectify the faults exhibited by ALTO I gifted to my wife on her birthday. Kindly ponder asymptotically the miseries I and my wife had to suffer by dint of negligence of service personnel of a multinational giant (Maruti Suzuki).

1. I purchased Alto car for my wife Deepa Chopra from Bagga Link Motors Patparganj Industrial area Delhi on 20/09/2008 (Regd. No. DL7CH 4953). Three days after taking the delivery of the car I found huge vibrations and pulling in the car towards left side. I took the car to Bagga Link Workshop. The mechanic adjusted the steering wheel and did some alignment but all in vain.

2. The mechanic (Mr. Jitendra) told me that the car was delivered to me without PDI. However, he assured me that the faults would be rectified at the time of first free service. I had no alternative except waiting till first free service. Meanwhile I reported the matter to the Maruti Suzuki regional office through e mail (also to Mr. Raghvan) but no action was taken.

3. On 12/10/2008 I drove the car to Bagga Link Workshop for first free service and had a horrible experience there. The car was delivered to me in the same condition as before. I penned down my remarks at the job card. The faults viz. pulling and the vibrations are still there which can be verified.

4. On my perpetual complaints, an engineer Mr. Tikendra inspected the car along with Mr. Vijay of Bagga Link and returned the car back to my wife after deflating and then inflating the tyres. The workshop officials were primarily interested in getting the satisfaction report signed by my wife rather than correcting the faults in the car.

5. My incessant calls to the regional office and the customer care resulted in a phone call I received from Mr. Siddharth on 08/12/2008. He assured that the car would be repaired to my satisfaction but when ‘Only God knows’.

6. On intervention of Ms. Harpreet Kaur of Regional office, the vehicle was taken to MSSD Narayana by Mr. Vijay Of Bagga Link Services, but again the same old story, the leftward pulling in the car could not be solved however, the vehicle was supposed to be attended by the so called senior engineer Mr. Lalwani.


6. Meanwhile my several telephonic complaints (phone[protected], and e-mails to the regional office were ignored as if I am an insane person. As a top official of this so called customer caring company kindly ponder asymptotically ‘why should I waste my time, energy and money if the vehicle I drive is in reasonably ok’ and if raising the voice against the wrongdoings of the officials at regional office is a crime than I shall keep on repeating it.

8. On 20/01/2009 I took the car to MSSD Narayana for second free service, and the mechanic Mr. Devendra agreed that the leftward pulling was there even after the service was done. My written complaint in this connection was thrown by the G.M. service in presence of Ms. Meena Gulati.

9..For your kind information I quote below the names of the officials I have contacted telephonically or otherwise (Bagga Link Service’s Mr.Vijay, Mr.Jitendra and Mr. Munjal; Regional Office Marti Suzuki’s Mr.Siddartha, Mr. Raghvan, Mr. Tikendra, Mr. Iqbal, and Ms. Harpreet Kaur; MSSD Narayana’s Mr.Lalwani, Mr. Sarkar, Ms. Meenu Nagpal, Mr.Devendra and G.M.Service; and innumerable complaints lodged through Maruti’s website

Kindly intervene so that I may not be put into further hardship.
Thanking You

Yours Sincerely

I strongly agree that why people have to behold a last ray of hope for getting their problem rectified. We have two maruti cars in the family – (i) Maruti Swift (LXI Model) owned by me with registration no. DL 9C Y 4747 and (ii) Maruti Wagon R owned by my father.

My car (Swift) met with an accident on 17th December 2010 – Friday at around 8.00 pm. I was on my way back to home in Dwarka from Bhikaji Camma Place. I was driving in the normal speed when suddenly a car smashed into my car from the back side and inturn my car got hit into car in front of mine. The back side was damaged severely and front side also got damaged. I took the car to Mayapuri Industrial Area, Phase II – New Delhi. I clearly outlined the damage to Mr. Vinod (the Body Shop representative from Mayapuri service station) that my car is damaged from back side, left and front side. I also highlighted him that during accident all the water was leaked from the front side and there might be damage in the radiator and requested to check engine also in order to get the car completely rectified, which I was assured also.

On 24th evening I got a call that my car is ready and I can take the delivery. While driving my car back from Mayapuri to Dwarka, I observed huge noise from the engine. I took my car back to Mayapuri service station on 26th and I was told that clutch plates have been damaged due to which noise is coming and there is need to replace these clutch plates which shall also increase the fuel efficiency. I was not convinced at all and therefore I took the car to Motinagar service station where I met Mr. Paramjeet and he was able to understand the problem of engine knocking. He advised me to leave the car with them and also I agreed to get my car serviced from them. Subsequently, I got a call from Motinagar saying that my RADIATOR was damaged due to which coolant is getting leaked and hence due to overheating lot of noise is coming from the engine.

I called back to Mayapuri service station enquiring that whether they have rectified the radiator or not. It was intimated to me there was no damage in the radiator and I might have damaged the radiator while driving my car back to home after delivery from Mayapuri. I got fair an idea that Mayapuri people have not rectified the radiator in the body shop and inturn accusing me that I have damaged the radiator.

Now my car is stranded in the Motinagar service station from last Sunday (26th December 2010) and neither Motinagar station nor the Mayapuri is taking charge for getting car rectified. Request you to look into the matter and get the radiator rectified to get the delivery of the car. Kindly be intimated that I am also submitting the same complaint to Maruti Head Office.
