Hyundai Motor India Complaints & Reviews

Two to Three weeks back I purchased a used Car (Fiat Palio) from an Advaith Hyundai employee (Vinay, Ph: [protected]).
But, while taking that car to home, after driving hardly 15Kms the car was broke down. I called Fiat Palio service center, they found that the Engine Head and many others are temporarily modified and they need to be replaced and they quoted Rs 24000/-.
I informed that to the manager of Advaith Hyundai Manager, even he said that it is not his responsibility after delivering the car. Then I realized that I am that poor victim, because of my stupid friend's suggestion that 'Hyundai is the reliable place'.

Now I was end up in getting that car repaired with a huge amount.

"Still, I didn't get the RC Book, insurance forms etc., that guy is not lifting my phone at all"

I didn't expect the justice from here as well, because the Advaith Hyundai manager itself said that it is my fate.

But one thing I am doing is that, "alerting my fellow wiproites and friends, not to trap with Hyundai", with adds, mails and internal classifieds.

Just thought of sharing this, with a hope that at least one genuine higher official can take some action and save the trust on Hyundai.

To whomesoever it may concern,

About one month a go i purchased a hyundai i20 from A1 hyundai located on kurla-andheri road in the name of mohammed shahid khan reg no mh 04 ed 112 and i didnt recieved the remote folding key which i was supposed to recieve with that model. Now the dealer is harassing me and not co-operating with me in providing the keys. He calls me every alternate day to his workshop and makes me sit for 2 to 3 hours and later says that your job is not done and u need to come later.

I booked an i20 magna car from Sharayu Motors, Turbhe, Navi Mumbai on 19th sept 09. They took the downpayment of 1,40,000/- promising the delivery within 25 days but till date havent received any feedback. the sales executive named Sohail just gives further dates stating company issues for the delay. Worst part is that i have already received a message from finance company asking for monthly instalment, without the delivery being made.
I am a media person and going to take up this matter and teach these people a lesson.

I was excited when seeing the brochure that promised a trip meter in the VTVT model. At least now I would be able to monitor the fuel consumption when driving. On delivery I found that though there was a trip meter, the 'consumption' function was not included. Complained by email and told to contact the local service station in Visakhapatnam but they could not help. Once again complained by email and told by the company,
"As regards to your concern, we would like to inform you that some of the equipment operating descriptions referred to may not apply to the particular vehicle with which this manual is supplied.
Further we would like to clarify to you that this average fuel consumption feature is not applicable to the complete range of domestic market and the same was discontinued from further new owner’s manual editions."
Then why do they take payment for something that they do not deliver? The only thing that I have received is the above jargon taught at every neighbourhood MBA school.
Be warned...

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I own two Hyundai Getz vehicles.The one with the problem is the Getz prime. The car has only run 17000km over a period of two years and is as good as new. It has been serviced at regular intervals at Kun hyundai , Anna Salai, Chennai. Last week it went for a regular check up and came out with a big dent on the left side which was repaired by the service station. Now a week later the car refused to start. The car was push started and taken back to the Hyundai service station. The answer was that the battery has packed up. The battery was supplied with the car on delivery and it is a substandard product as the car has done only 17000km. It is some korean battery. I asked the service manager to give me in writing that the battery life of the vehicle is only 17000km which he promptly refused. Now moving onto step two - i asked them to replace my battery and that i would foot the bill of Rs.5700. They agreed and kept me waiting for 4hrs to replace the battery and at the end of it they placed a battery in the car of the wrong size and asked if it was ok to tie it in place with wires and cables. I did not agree to this and they sent me back home promising to send a person over with a new fitting battery on monday. I recd no call or response from their service personnel Mr.vishwanath. I sent my car over again this morning after push starting the car. Now they claim that they are talkin to Amaron for the specific battery and will get back in two days. I am stuck without a car for almost a week thanks to Hyundai. I would expect at least a service battery for this period and this experience with Hyundai and their lack of professionalism has put doubts into my head if i will ever go for another Hyundai car ever again. If this is how Hyundai treats its loyal customers - kudos to their Customer Support Managers and personnel on their forward journey.

I bought my i10 SPORTZ 1.2 GLS on 31 Jan, 2009 from Shreenath Hyundai dealer located in Andheri west Mumbai. On 28th September 2009 was on the way to Thane to attend family function, I stopped my car to buy some stuff from local shop and when I went to my car to restart it again , to my utter dismay it did not start. Being a Hyundai car which I had trusted its brand and just a 8 months old car I didn’t even thought I would face such problem. For 40 mins I was trying to start my car with no success. Finally I tried to contact local mechanic who assisted me with Modi service station helpline no. when I contacted Modi service station, they sent their mechanics to check out fault in car. After initial check they detected problem in ECM ie one of the component of engine which is also known as heart of engine. He asked to park my car in their showroom in Thane which I was reluctant to keep as I stay in Andheri and preferred to TOW my car to Shreenath Hyundai service station in Jogeshwari West. It cost me Rs. 2000 for towing charges for no fault of mine. Next day I meet Deepak Patel ([protected]) executive who was attending my car gave me all sort of reason like dust in fuel pipe which carries petrol form tank to engine, once they also mention manufacturing fault in ECM, then they changed to spark plug and finally settled to loose wire as fault. During this 6 days every time I called up to inquire about the exact fault this guys was unable to provide with exact reason. I was even called on Saturday 3 Oct, 2009 to collect car and confirm on phone that car was ready and to take delivery and when I was about to leave I again received call that again car was not starting and finally was called to take delivery on Tuesday 6th Oct 2009. I spoke to Mr Gerard Martin who is Dy. Works Manager at Shreenath Hyundai service station, who assured that they have worked upon the car and I wont be facing this issue again. When I asked for reimbursement for tow charges I had borne he refused to do so and said this doesn’t not come under warranty and when we asked to give us in writing what was the exact fault, he refuse to do so and said we don’t maintain such record of car. Within 5 days of getting my car back from service station I faced same issue. I had to go off for some urgent meeting and my car broke down just few meters away from house. I called up this so called manager of your service station, he said he will sent help in 15 mins but help came after an hr and I had to cancel my urgent meeting. They checked my car and took back to service station. Next day I went to log a complaint to Shreenath showroom from where I bought my car. I spoke to Pinky who is manager over there. Where she contacted service station and confirm that there was issue with ECM which earlier they had detected but didn’t work on it and confirm that it was manufacturing fault. And they have got approval from Hyundai to replace it.
When we asked for reimbursement she promised that we will get reimburse as per warranty. This shows utter inconsistencies in communication between two departments where one assures we will get where other simply denies it. I would be getting delivery on 27 October. Ie after 15-18 days and not to forget my car won’t available on festival of Diwali.
We agree that fault may appear in the machines but not of such magnitude which directly interfere with car efficiency. You'll appreciate that every car customer has emotional attachment with the asset brought with hard earned money. . It is evident from the car that there are serious lapses on quality control resulting in major technical/manufacturing defects. This was not at all expected from a company of such a high repute but the fact remains that I've suffered a lot on this account. I've lost my confidence completely in this make & apprehend to take out car out of station with fear to face same again.

A1 Hyundai

It cant get worser than my case. I booked my car in June 2009 and ultimately had to cancel the booking in the month of September 2009 due to number of harassment.

This Company is a real cheat and fraud. They will call you only till the time you haven’t paid the full money, post which you keep on calling and there will be no takers. I would wish to use all adjectives for them including Mahendra Kasturi, Deepak, Sanath (in accounts) and the entire team.

I had to take the delivery of the car on Dusshera and was also given the engine and chassis number. The day I went to see the car in Bhiwandi stockyard of the Company, I was told that this car which was allotted to me had been sold to somebody else. So the journey of 100 kms from Mumbai and a day off from office is completely wasted.

Post this, I was again allotted a engine and chassis number (442815). I go to Bhiwandi stockyard, perform the puja on the car and come to the showroom for getting the invoice. To my utmost shock, I am told that there would have been some mis-communication and this car has already been allotted to somebody else. What the [censored].

Now, I apply for cancellation of my booking. I am told that the refund would be given in an around a week’s time. I call up after a week to find out that the accounts guys haven’t yet got my file to process the request. Now what do you call it. The company representative calls up and asked for another letter to cancel the booking. Didn’t they know the same thing when I was there in their office.

Its now more than 2 weeks and I await for my refund, calling up different people to find out that they are very busy to even take a call. I wish and hope that somebody would take some serious actions against them. This is nothing but harassment of customers.

Rgds,

Dear sir / Madam

Requesting you to pls help me out or what action I should go for

Dear Sir / Madam,

I have purchased a Hyundai I-20 (Black, Magna) with invoice number Invoice no. LAMPL/0570/[protected] on 7 Aug 09. At the time of initial billing, I was asked to pay an amount of Rs. 559168 which I paid in full before delivery. However, the final invoice was of Rs. 557436 when I took delivery on 10 Aug 09. Hence, I paid an excess amount of Rs. 1732 to Hyundai which the company is liable to pay back to me. At the time of taking delivery, I was told by the concerned person that I would be sent the refund cheque within a few days. However, even after repeated reminders to the concerned Hyundai dealer (L A Motors - Continental Hyundai) sales person, I have not got any response on the same. I have even visited the Mulund Hyundai Continental Showroom THRICE to remind of the refund cheque but have got a feeble response. The concerned sales person has stopped taking my calls in the past week and there is no reply to my sms requesting to call back.

After multiple complaints sent by e-mails, I received a call from a Hyundai representative by the end of August confirming to me that I would be getting the refund in 1-2 weeks. Its now been more than 2 months since I have purchased the car and I have yet not received the refund cheque nor any update on when I would be getting the same.

Kindly advise as to how I shall resolve this long pending issue and get my money refunded back.

Thank you,

Regards,
Sooraj Arur

The car is having problem of humming noise
It was inspected in Nimbus Hyundai sec -5 Noida , on 12th Aug 2009 while servicing of the vehicle
But i was told to check after wheel balancing & alingment
But problem persists even after that

I recontacted Nimbus on 21st Aug
The bearing for the vehicle were checked & confirmed out
They told that tyres may be having problem

After so many reminder calls MRF person checked the tyre
MRF person confirmed that the tyres are having weight uneven problem , but it was not a tyre manufacturing defect , May be it was due to balancing

But for the confirmation i want to tell u that i had all the 3 free services done for the vehicle as per details given below
1st Service [protected] Hyundai Motor plaza Mathura Road New Delhi
2nd Service [protected] Hyundai Motor plaza Mathura Road New Delhi
3rd Service [protected] Nimbus Hyundai Sec -5 Noida
4th Service [protected] Nimbus Hyundai Sec -5 Noida

All free services were required to check the wheel balancing & alignment check as per manual , Also same thing was checked in 4th service also
Than how the tyre can be faulty due to alignment & balancing problem

I recently had the second service of my i10 sportz car at Hyundai centre, pookunnam, thrissur, Kerala state, India. The service was really horrible. they charged Rs 1800/- for providing 'free' service. plus i had few scratch marks on the car for which i told them to do patch painting. They took 6 days to deliver the car. To my utter dissapointment the patches were still visible and friends do you know how much they charged???? Rs 5500/-!!!!!!!! Damn it. it asked them why. they said it was 'special' paint! God knows what!!! The worker where so arrogant and not at all pleasing!! Not satisfied i took the car to a local mechanic and he did a perfect job in 30 mts and charged just Rs 100/-!!!!! Hyundai servicers are real cheats and robbers!!! Think twicw before purchasing a hyundai car.
