Hi,
I Purchased TVS Apache RTR 180 with ABS last ten months back at Sri Sai TVS - Lingampally , Medak district. Iam facing some problems from last two months, my bike rear wheel disk break was blowing big sound, iam informed and show the bike at show room,they are told with me this is Manufacturer defualt so we change it. iam visit show room many times they told that Next week, Next week......when i was visit show room Next week, Next week..........But no use.

Hi I bought TVS Apache RTR160 on 01/07/2010, from ANJANADRI TVS Kanakapura sub dealer of Bharath TVS Bangalore, I was giving for service regularly but I faced problem in engine gear box that called center Bering not working properly I dint run not even 22000 KM. Regarding this issue I have reported to TVS Customer Care center but no response from them this is worst service they are giving. Finally I spend Rs.5000/- from my pocket to solve the problem. My sincere advice to them if they are not ready to solve the customer problem better pull your shutter, and start some other business which cant harm to the customer.

Hi All,

This is Murli from Noida.
I had my worst experiance with TVS service service at Noida.

I had problem with my Engine so i decided to had work on it.

After a long thought i deceided to do it on TVS showroom at Noida "Aditi Automobiles, c-2, sector-10, Noida".

When i reached at the shoroom on (14/04/2012) and show my consern regarding the problem i am having with my engine and told them to complet engine work, the persone told me that i can get my bike by the evening which was duly conformed by the owner of the showroom and i was told to come in evening to colect the bike. They take 5000 rs from me in advance, stating that they required advance payment for doing the job.

I got a call in the evening that the bike will not be able to collect in the evening as they don't have some parts available at the showroom and will be available on Wednesday (18/04/2012).

Wtihout knowing the inventory they operated my bike and then told me that the bike will not be available till Wednesday.

Then on Wednesday when i called them to know the status of my bike they again told me that they still don't have the parts available at the showroom and again told that the bike will be available on 19th.

So i am still waiting for the day to come when i will get my bike back.

I would recommand every TVS users that do not go the Aditi Automobils, c-2, Sector-10, Noida.
They are not aware about their inventory available at the showroom and missguide the customers.

Regards,
Murli Ashiya

Have purchased TVS Wego in May'2011. The scooter was running well initially & then since December'2011 there is a starting problem being faced in the vehicle. The service advisor suggested us to take it to the Battery Vendor , we took it there he cleaned the battery & then it ran fine for about 3 months & now again there is a starting problem wherein it was taken to the battery vendor again, they took it with them kept it for about 4 days & returned it back it ran for a day & from the very next day onwards the scooter refused to start with the self start button, we always had to start it with a kick which is not acceptable at all for a female like me. I always had to be dependent on someone to start a scooter for me & then take it to work & in case if it stops in between them i m just helpless so started travelling by auto.
A scooter which is not even a year old, is not expected to function in this manner. This is really bad. Kindly let me know what shall be done with my scooter now as I m really stuck now & have to shell out the auto fare daily to travel to office.

it is with extreme disappointment, anguish and frustration that i am penning down this complaint. Just with the hope that things at cochin tvs motors would improve in due course of time. (my personal feeling though that this is highly unlikely). I have been having prolonged anguishing interactions with the staff at cochin tvs motors sales cum service centre. in fact, this is not my first mail complaining about the sorry state of affairs at thisoutlet. no action seems to be have taken on my earlier complaint as well!!!
1. sales - i had the extreme misfortune of buying a tvs wego from this outlet in december. i had carried out extensive survey prior finalising on the product. how i wish i had done some survey on the outlet as well! The staff at the sales division is poorly trained (if at all any training is carried out at tvs, which i very much doubt now!) to handle customers. Besides the lack of language skills other than at malayalam, which is surprising since cochin is supposed to be cosmopolitan, the staff give an impression of extreme disinterest in selling any product. in fact, i even visited the mahindra outlet opposite this one and was impressed with the sales pitch there. how i wish i had bought their product! post sale relationship just worsens. i had to face a lot of hassles during the delivery with regards to registration and the delivery of the vehicle itself.
2. servicing - this is the third vehicle i own, besides a motorbike from bajaj and a car from honda. and i have never witnessed such high levels of indifference at any other service station. no one seems to care for the customer. i cant imagine any other outlet treating its customers in this manner. coming to the specifics, i had given my wego for servicing on 13th apr, at 1020 hrs for servicing and was told that the delivery would be made at 5:30 pm the same day. at the appointed time i was shocked to find that the staff of two ladies at the counter was busy winding up for the day and gave no response what so ever to my queries regarding my bike. they just handed out a bill. when i enquired about the breakdown of the charges, no one could come up with any answer. moreover no one could communicate with me either in hindi ( which happens to be our national language) or english. finally i lost hope and decided to pay up the amount. when i flashed my credit card i was told that they don't accept cards! i was not surprised anymore going by the prehistoric mindset being displayed by the staff. when i proceeded to withdraw cash from the nearest atm, the staff had locked up the office and retired for the day!!! i was shocked to find all the shutters down!! this despite the staff being aware that i was withdrawing cash to pay for the servicing!!! and the next two days were declared holidays and i had no chance of getting my vehicle!!! finally, equally unruly behaviour by me with the last one on the staff who was about to leave ensured i got my vehicle yesterday!!! hats off to this organisation!!!

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is regarding my worst experience that I had recently with one of your authorized dealership named Arunagiri TVS in Bangalore(near SilkBoard). I ordered for new Wego Gold color without front box on December 2011. They took a booking amount on the same day for Rs.500 and assured will provide the vehicle without front box by making a special order to TVS. But they did not call for a month. When I asked on January 2012, they said the gold color is not available then in February they said they cannot order a Wego without front box. In march 2012, when I asked for refund they said they have ordered a Wego without front box.

Because of this worst response from them, I opted not to buy TVS Wego at all. Now when I ask for refund (because they cannot provide me a Wego without front-box) they say that they cannot refund the money.

On the same day, I went to Ananda Honda dealer who is next to this TVS dealer. They provided an extreme customer service with proper technical details and I have booked a vehicle as well. I have a peace of mind in this purchase.

I am really sad for such dealers of yours.

Dear sir,
I purchased TVS jive in 17/9/ 2010.After 6 months of purchase rust spots were observed on kick, silencer, guard and handle. The kick was replaced by the dealer.White spots are observed on the black alloy wheels which were checked by the engineer from TVS. He had taken the photograph of the same. Several time i have visited the dealer but he is not able to provide any solution of the problem.
What is to be done?
Will i never purchase TVS vehicle in future/suggest others also not to purchase it/ i will get the solution of the problem in the consumer forum.

But still bike engine got lots of problem. When i m asking them for changing the Engine they r not taking it seriously and they are denying to replace engine.

Dear Sir,

Arnapurna motor 3 to 4 times but they always says that they have no stock of that two switch and again re greatly say that

I HAVE PURCHASED MY VEHICLE ON MARCH 2010, EVERYDAY I AM FACING PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE, 1. MILEAGE PROBLEM, 2.MISS FIRING SOUND 3.DURING RUNNING SUDDEN OFF, 4.UNWANTED NOISE FROM MY VEHICLE.
THESE PROBLEM I AM FACING, AND RECENTLY ON 15TH FEB'2012 I GAVE MY VEHICLE TO RAMKAY TVS, SPECIFICALLY I TOLD THEM TO CHANGE MY BREAK SHOES, BECAUSE IT ALSO MAKE HUGE KREECH NOISE, BUT RAMKEP TECHINICAL PEOPLE DIDN'T DO ANY THING. AS PER ASSURANCE BY THE TVS COMPANY, MILEAGE IS NOT SATISFACTORY. EVEN AFTER SERVICE JUST 35 -40KM ONLY MILEAGE, AND FROM TODAY MORNING MISFIRING SOUND IS STARTED COMING. MY VEHICLE IS 5YEAR WARRANTY, DURING THIS WARRENTY PERIOD COMPANY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR KEEPING THE ASSURANCE AS DECLARED THROUGH ADVERTISEMENT, AND MANUAL. FROM PRABHA TVS I SWITCHED OVER TO RAMKAY TVS FOR BETTER SERVICE, BUT RECENT SERVICE IS JUST WASH MY VEHICLE, AND APPLY COOLANT OIL ON TOP OF MY VEHICLE FOR POLISING, THATS ALL. EVEN AT THE TIME OF DELIVERY I FOUND OUT MY VEHICLE HANDLE BAR IS SHAKING, WHICH I TOLD THEM AT THE TIME OF HANDEDOVER MY VEHICLE FOR SERVICE. THEN I PURCHASED TWO RUBBER BUSH, AND ASK THE MECHANIC TO CHANGE IT. BEFORE THIS INCIDENT YOUR MECHANIC ARGUED WITH ME HANDLE BAR IS DULY SERVICED AND THIS IS SHAKE IS QUITE NORMAL. THEN I PROVED WITH ONE NEW VEHICLE WHICH IS IN SHOW ROOM. THEN ONLY HE ACCEPTED, AND HE CALLED THE MECHANIC FOR RECTIFYING THE SAME. THIS WHAT YOUR MECHANIC IS KNOWN.
NOW WHAT I HAVE TO DO? SHALL I GO FOR LEGAL PROCEDURE THROUGH CONSUMER REDDRESSAL FORUM FOR MILEAGE PROBLEM.

KINDLY LET ME KNOW.
THANKS AND REGARDS

Hello,


I’m Dhananjay from Chennai, last year January 2011 I bought a TVS Wego bike. In this last one year 3 times they had changed the battery after a more struggle from my end. In the mid of November 2011, they had changed the battery on 3rd time. During the 6th Free service (17th Feb 2012) they found the battery is gone faulty and asking me to take the charge.

During the last change orally they confirmed that battery will have 1 year warranty and they had given assurance that the problem will not occur again. For a safer side I requested to either fix the issue or to replace the bike (or Buy back). I made a complaint through email and called up TVS support center for lot of time, but not received a acceptance/reply mail from TVS.

Today they call back and said I have to pay the charges for replacing the battery as the warranty got expired. As a consumer, it’s not possible for me to change the battery for 2 months once. My request is either they have to fix the issue in this vehicle or buy back.

I request the support for closing this issue.


Thanks and Regards,
