Hi Hyundai Team
I request that this email be escalated to the top management so that they know the pain of a loyal Hyundai customer.
1. I’ve been a lifelong user of Hyundai cars, hence as the first car purchase after my job I went to a HPromise centre to buy a i10 Asta MH04 ET 7907. I was assured by the over 150 tests etc. which were described in the brochure. Within a couple of months, in the middle of the highway the power steering failed. On taking it to a Hyundai service centre – R Square Hyundai, Chembur, Mumbai they informed me that the warranty does not cover steering defects and I paid around Rs. 20000 to replace the steering rod. The battery failed next in a month – Rs. 10000. The tyres were worn out - So replaced all at a cost of Rs.40000.
2. I’ve been regularly services the car at R Square Hyundai every two months with checkups and all the necessary fluid changes. However a month back, just weeks after the warranty expired I saw smoke from the engine. After taking the car to the workshop, I was informed that there was a hole in the engine which was leaking coolant and replacing the whole block at a cost of Rs. 70000 was the only way. Despite regular checkups, they had never warned me of even wear and tear. After much financial planning, I approved the same.
3. It’s been two months since the car has gone into the workshop. ON THE DATE of planned delivery, I was informed that due to the replacement of the engine block by the service team, now there is low compression in the engine and now they’ve requested the Hyundai team to take a look. The planned repair for a minor hole in the engine, led to replacement of the whole block which led to new problems which didn’t exist earlier for which estimated repair time is unknown again. I have not been provided a replacement car even for two months now.
As seen above I am suffering continuously by trusting Hyundai and have been facing continuously bad service and a HPromise assured car ran into all the above problems. Request you to escalate this issue to the Service Head’s attention, so that a valued customer isn’t lost for a lifetime. Request a confirmation and a revert please.
Warm regards,
