Renault Kwid — New Renault Kwid overheating detected: dealer asked me to pay Rs 88,200/- to get it repaired

Address:Pune, Maharashtra, 411046

My name is Vivek Vasant Mulay resident of Pune Maharashtra. I am retired bank employee. I purchased a new Renault Kwid top end car on 12/03/2016 from Roharsh Motors Pvt. Ltd Baner pune.The car was working fine. I did the first servicing in first week of may 2016. I took the car to the dealer Roharsh Motors Ptv. Ltd pune on 19/08/2016 for second servicing. When asked about any issues I told them that there is one warning light that comes & goes off after the ignition which is supposed to be normal as mentioned the user manual. The dealer told me that the wires have been damaged by rat bite & few components needs to be repaired/replaced. I was shocked when the dealer said that it will not be covered under warranty or insurance.
When I called the insurance surveyor, he informed me that there is no sign of any rite bite for our claim no [protected].
I have also not received surveyor's report yet. The car is in the custody of the dealer who is asking me to pay Rs88, 200 to repair it. Its a brand new Renault Kwid car which was working ok until I gave to it the service centre. The dealer blames me for driving the car in overheating condition but the overheating warning light did not stay on nor there was any beep sound. Overheating is a common problem detected in many Renault Kwid Cars sold in the initial phase as reported in media. Plz refer to
