Renault Complaints & Reviews

It is painful to inform you all that self have taken delivery of new renault duster on 11th feb’15 from renault-kanpur hgp cars (P) ltd and all kind of documentations including car insurance was done by the employee of renault show room. After completion of 2000 km, car was sent for servicing and minor insurance claim on 11th mar’15 through their own vehicle pick-up driver. I was provided with mobile numbers +91-[protected] and +91-[protected] to liaise with someone at renault service center, kanpur. I was surprised to hear from service center when they were accusing me for not insuring my car with “new india insurance”. According to them my car is insured is with “ bharti axa” so it will take another 5 days for re-delivery on the other hand if my car insurance should have been with “new india insurance” then my cars would have been delivered within 3 days. I replied it is the fault and misguide of people sitting in your showroom who did this insurance without consulting me. As an innocent customer i had just paid all money including insurance to show room employee and they did this insurance. This is their lookout and responsibility to provide best service to innocent customer and insure the vehicles with the company who settle the claims earliest. Anyway now i had no option but to listen service center’s rubbish. Every time when i was calling to +91-[protected] number to get status of my car, that gentleman used to hand over the phone to someone who was supposed to be advisor for my car and claim. Mr. Advisor used to give me lots of stories and excuses and never telling the correct status of my car’s job. Again after 5 days on 16th mar’15, i called up to +91-[protected] number to know the status, they replied me that they are still waiting d. O from “bharti axa”. It was height of patience as same story i was listening from day third. I wanred service center that their this kind of attitude and treatment to customer will compel us to Take legal action against you all. After 10 minutes of my above warning, i received a call from mr. Arif khan (Crm) saying that my car is ready and i should come to their service center to pick it up as there driver is on two days holidays. I told mr. Khan that your service center is located far away from the kanpur city and it is inconvenient to reachthere without own transportation. Also before taking delivery of the vehicle at home for servicing it is your lawful duty to inform all customers that they have to come their own for re-delivery because the reputed renault service center is managed by only one driver. I requested mr. Khan that kindly arrange to re-delivery my car either at my door or make some arrangement to take me at your place as i do not have any other means and transportation to reach there. Same above was answered to mr. Khan email received on 17th mar’15 as well. My car was just simply kept parked in servicing center for 3 day i. E. 16th, 17th and 18th march due to unavailability of driver. At last my car was re-delivered to me on 19th mar’15 at service center’s own sweet convenience and time without bothering customer’s inconvenience so caused. I humbly request the person in-charge who is responsible to look into above said issue to take it seriously to preserve the prestigious name of renault also if bharti axa is not upto the entire satisfaction of your customers please convert all insurance policies from bharti axa to new india insurance, specially for your kanpur’s customers. Awaiting yours. Regards Capt. Ajay srivastava Mob: [protected]

Brought a brand new Duster Adventure 110PS Black On 18th Oct, 2014 from Renault Showroom Kailash Colony, New Delhi, Delhi 110048, India So there are few serious issues i'm facing with this car-Picture are attached. Its only 3 months that i have brought this car. 1.Both the headlights are supposed to be sealed units 1.1 But i recently discovered an insect in the headlamp assembly. 1.2 And In the other Light there are moisture marks as per the Picture attached. 2. The painted surface is prone to scratches.(We are using cars for last 40years but never faced such an issue) this is despite the fact that we got the car Paint protected coating done by the Authorized Renault Okhla service center within a weak of buying as we found the surface to be very prone to scratches. Right now the car has gone through another paint protection coating from the same service center, still there is no change. At service center this issue was not found among other Dusters. And the service center failed to explain it. 3. The paint is chipping of (1.5 - 2mm Dia) without any sign of even minor dent indicating nothing has hit the surface. The pictures of the issue are attached. Please go through it. and take a remedial action ASAP Kushagr Jain - [protected] Faridabad Black 110ps Duster Adventure HR-51-BC-7116

Hi, I am Rahul L R, practising as an advocate in Trivandrum district court. I am a reputed customer of your company. I purchased a Renault Duster on[protected] from T V Sundaran Iyengar Sons & LTD, Square N H Bypass, Muttathara, Vallakkadavu, Tvm. My vehicle (KLO1-BS-6688) was damaged and I handed over my vehicle to your company's garage for repairing on[protected]. But till this date, your reputed company has not, complied or cure my vehicle's defect. For the last 19 days my vehicle is idling in your custody without attention. So it can be treated as a deficiency in service.It is the company's responsibility to provide sufficient vehicle parts to the customers. It is the duty of the company to provide the required parts as and when required by the customer. If you are not providing the parts or services as per the customer requirement, it can be treated as illegal trading. So you should be liable to pay compensation for deficiency in service and other damages which happened due to this deficiency. . Hence you are directed to make available my vehicle repaired within 3 days positively, otherwise legal action will be taken against your company. Rahul L R Advocate [protected]

Dear Renault I m really unhappy with the service I was provided at the sambalpur(odisha) Renault showroom on 20th of January this year.poor staff assistance, poor washing and cleaning facility, after the servicing still my problem not solved my A.C is not working properly. Power window of driver side stopped working after poor handling by the cleaning staff. Many more issues are there to solved and verified urgently at the service point ..its seriously damaging company reputation.

I have bought pulse in 2012 and recently met with small accident took it to rajamundry show room and got it repaired by whooping bill of 97000 how ever repair was not properly done they delivered my car after that i got major engine complaint with in 1 day after delivery when i notified about this they are opting for new engine which costs around 3 lac 95thousand which is rediculous in which even insurance will not be covered too its been 1 month still no response from company side and the staff at rajahmundry are pretty rude and arrogant.

Hi,

I am Ravi Kiran Y and I work in the IT Services industry as a Client Partner. I purchased a brand new Duster AWD RXL model from Trident Auto, Silk Board, Hosur Road on 26-Dec-2014.

After 150 KMS of drive, in the middle of the road, the Clutch failed to function. This was not only a nuisance and embarrassment on the road but also impacted my New Year travel plans.

I am very disappointed at Renault the French Auto maker failing to live up to its reputation. I am also surprised on how such a vital and basic part (clutch) can malfunction that too for a brand new unit.

I raised a complaint with Renault and requested them to replace the unit with a new car that was thoroughly inspected and quality certified. I have also requested them to submit a report on the root cause of the issue and HOW / WHY the issue would never recur ever again.

Apparently, this issue never occurred for earlier variants of Duster and could be specific to AWD 4x4 model.

Here are the details of the case:

Model: Renault Duster AWD RXL

Date of Purchase: 26-Dec-2014

Regn #: KA01 TS 6590

Odometer reading when the Issue Occurred: 152

Complaint logged on: 30/12/2014

Dealer Name & Address:

Trident Auto Enterprises, Silk Board, Hosur Rd, Bangalore

OPPOSITE PARTIES RENAULT INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED (RIPL) ASV Ramana Towers #37-38, 4th Floor, Venkatanarayana Road, T.Nagar, Chennai-600 017 AND Trident Renault Bangalore -Whitefield - Sales & Service Showroom No.111, 124&125, B Narayanapura Village, Whitefield, Bangalore East Taluk, Bangalore On 10th Nov 2014, there was a minor damage to the owned vehicle- Renault Duster vehicle having Registration- KA18 P 1462 attached Certificate of Registration and Insurance in Annexure-I) due to the impact of the vehicle bumper to a dog that came suddenly, was no major damage to the car except for the bent in the bumper, intercooler assembly and condenser. There was no damage to Radiator and no traces of coolant leakage were found at the incident place. Vehicle was driven for about 13 kms; smoke was noticed in the front & stopped the vehicle. We were surprised to see the smoke, called 24X7 road side assistance and arranged the vehicle to get towed to RENAULT Whitefield, Bangalore. At the service center we were shocked to hear from Technician that the engine is seized without any inspection. As this was 18 months old and comes under warranty period. The complainant made a complaint at the customer care of the Renault India, complaint number:[protected] dated 13Nov2014 as attached Annexure-II(e-mail communications), this complaint is regarding the request for investigation by the opposite parties on the Engine failure especially valve door melting lead to Vehicle STOP and Engine seize. Melted Valve door cover photos in Annexure-III. That the complainant party submits that, Renault India & Trident Renault Bangalore did not investigating and also not providing the root cause, failure modes for the Engine valve door cover melting. Both the opposite parties playing a safe game because engine comes under warranty and behaving arrogantly during our visits, telephonic call and not replying to the email communication. Service manager from Trident Renault agreed that failure is not so common checked with other Engine Manufactures confirms the same. Believe that whatever information that I have requested was sensible and as a customer I got a Right to ask because we have paid for the vehicle. More over the information that I am seeking is non-proprietary in nature and need to explain to customer if they asks. As Opposite parties failed to provide the complete report, failure modes even after the repeated requested done by the complainant. The only detail provided by the opposite party is attached as annexure II. I’m suspecting the Quality of the plastic material used for the valve door cover that led to failure of engine. Estimate for repair from Trident Renault costs 2.29 lakhs is almost 38~40% of the vehicle cost (8.75 lakhs). Based on the estimate and Arrogant behavior we decided to take back the vehicle from Trident Renault . I request your kind being to educate Renault India & Trident Renault for their arrogant behavior and to pay the same amount which they have quoted 2.29 lakhs plus charges rupees 60, 000/- for the inconvenience caused to the customer.

THIS COMPLAINT MAY BE SHOWN TO CHEIF MARKETING MANAGER RENAULT INDIA AND THE CEO dear sir, for the past 6 months I am planning to buy a duster from your lucknow dealer but till date have not been able to purchase it because of the poor marketing done by the said dealer, i want to buy the same through CSD and that is the reason why the dealer is not cooperating. At present there is a discount scheme going on so as a customer of CSD am i eligible for the said discount or not? can you just clarify the same. Please make your organisation little CUSTOMER CENTRIC. Col Rameshwar Gupta
