I'm facing the proble with gear shift (From 3rd to 2nd) for the second time on my 2012 ertiga vdi. First occurrence was around 35, 000 kms. The same issue re-surfaced around 40, 000 kms. During the first instance, the authorised service centre guy told that this issue is with the synchroniser ring, hence got it replaced. They charged me inr 8, 000 for this work. Now just after 5000 km, the same issue resurfaced. When enquired with the same service centre, they argued that this is a known issue and since there is no guarantee for spares, he quoted the around inr 8, 000 for repairs. Also, he wasn't competent enough to answer all our queries. This was an annoying and frustrating experience.
Maruti suzuki should address this issue holistically by replacing all defective units to retain the customer loyalty. If this isn't done, i'm sure maruti suzuki will loose customers like me.
By writing in this forum, i hope this reaches the concerned agencies.
