[Resolved]  Hyundai i10 — Serious Safety problem in Hyundai i10

I have purchased “i10 Magna” car from Sanjay Hyundai, Pune. This car was delivered to me in the second week of January 2008. My car has developed two faults in less than three moths o[censored]se, when the car has not even run 3000 km. These are obviously design problems or serious quality issues in Hyundai i10 car.
1. On April 07, 2008 major accident was averted when my car suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, when I was negotiating a ‘U’ turn. I was later told by the mechanic, of Sanjay Hyundai that the left side axle had come off.
This is a serious problem which can cause injury to life and property of driver/passenger. I consider my self lucky that no fast moving vehicle banged into me when the car stopped suddenly in the middle of the road.
I fail to understand how a new car that has not even run 3000 kms can develop such a serious problem. This clearly shows that there is a design problem in the model i10 or quality problem with the particular vehicle supplied to me.
2. Another minor problem cropped up within one month of purchase of the car. Wiper motor of the vehicle suddenly started and stopped, on its own, without switching on the wiper. Wiper motor had been replaced to solve this problem.

Pick of the car is very very very bad, Hyundai has to do something on this front
I am using hyndai i10 Kappa (2010) model. When I first booked the car, the sales man show me a model which is readily available for registration. When I looked at the engine hood, it was so dusty. I suspected that it could be an used one. So I told him that I don't need this and expect a new piece. He agreed and said then it may take another 4 days to get another piece. But he did not do like that and delivered the same defective car. It used to raise (RPM) a lot when you press break. Beware of noting the chasis number...

Also I had steering noise which can be easily noted when you move your vechicle from the parking. I went to them and he told that entire assembly has to be replaced. But after arguments, they changed only the yoke plug and the problems seems to be fine now.

Beware of part replacements. If you are innocent they take good parts from your vehicle. Till my 30000 km service I did not have any gear problem. But as soon as I got back the vechile after that service, I started noticing that 2nd gear is not engaing properly. I feel that they have replaced from my car to the favouring customer.

When there is a problem, do not leave your vehicle for more time. Even for simple oil service they will ask time till the next day. That is basically to get good parts from your vehicle. Some times they even say if you need delivery today then we can't wash as we have more cars. I still accept and get my car immediately on the same day to avoid such issues.
