[Resolved]  Toyota Fortuner — Axle Design soo feeble

Address:Chennai, Tamil Nadu

I have attached the estimation of the repair & spare replacement for my fortunate which hit a median stone in a service lane in Chennai mount route.... Am surprise to know just because my SUV hit a median stone at a very medium speed ( on a service lane ) am cornered to this cost in the list.... When the technical crew in lanson Toyota inspected my vehicle ( Mr . Mathi , Mr . srini & Mr . Sathish ) they were explaining the vulnerability of the damage caused but not able to answer my simple questions .... My question were ....

- Does it cost some much ( Around 1,4 lacs ) just because my vehicle hit an median stone ?
- Is the vehicle design or the axle soo feeble that it cant even handle an very week impact ?
- So if i travel in an highway ( lets says 120 kmpl ) is my vehicle not safe to drive ? as it cost my axle , suspension , nickel etc....
- has the vehicle design is not design to meet the safety of the passenger or withstand the weight of the vehicle ?

Finally there was no reply on these question ... I said give me an inspection report of the vehicle that i can raise the same with toyota and information them on the vehicle inconsistency ... There was a pin drop silence from these managers & crew....

Am totally disregarded towards Toyota products.. Now i have lost the satisfaction on the quality.... now i feel its just an other car... I want somebody from your place to call me @ [protected] that i can explain things in a better way ...

The Customer relation manager Mr. Srini even raise a complaint with Toyota before 2 weeks for which there was no reply , nor any further communication ...... i can provide the complaint no on request...

This has to be address shortly before i take this to the reviewers team ....

Point to be note : There was not even an single scratch or dent in the bumper , inside the type , axle , or any rods inside the type ... not even an single scratch to be mentioned....
