Renault — Service center khivraj perungudi, chennai - service issue

Address:600096
Website:www.renault.co.in

I have renault pulse rxl purchased on april 4th 2012. i was experiencing problems with clutch, gear and engine noise during march this year. i have taken the vehicle to renault service center, perungudi (khivraj renault) and complained on the issue and asked for complete checkup along with some body shop work. when i receive the vehicle they said there is no issues and everything was ok.
After taken my vehicle to home, i couldn’t get a chance to drive since i was travelling to us. after 1.5 months, i have returned from us and i was driving to my home town in car. i found that the issues i complained were still persists and service center haven’t done anything to check the issue.
I have taken the car to service center again and complained again on the issue. this time they have given a big list of quote to replace the parts worth 1 lakh rupees. when i see the detailed list of parts, then i found that the service center was cheated me by not rectifying the issues i complained earlier since the car warranty was nearing to expire.
So now they want to charge me for the clutch and fan motor for which i have complained during my previous visit and supposed to be covered under warranty.
After my emails to service center they have accepted to bare the 50% of the slave cylinder which is inr 1675. but not accepted to cover fan motor. i have met the manager krishnakumar at service center today. there was no customer friendly approach and he declined to solve my issue. he said that he is ok if i go for legal. so i started working on legal compliant on this issue.
If there is any customer care available for renault, please note of it.

Arun,

The response is not acceptable. Either you haven't properly check the issue or you might have done a temporary fix due to the reason it is nearing the warranty expiry period. After the car delivery on April, I didn't drive much after i took delivery of the car from last service .I traveled abroad for 1.5 months. After returning Chennai, I drove to out of station and found the issue in clutch, gear and engine noise is remaining there. Then returned to Chennai and handed over to service center. I came to service center again.Please remember I didnt bring the car to service center by towing. I was able to drive the care and the issue I reported is the some times the clutch getting locked inside when I press it. It is not completely down. So your statement on this is invalid.

If the issues notified before the car warranty expires are not resolved, this will be taken to the legal for further resolution.

Abdul Raheem

This is not acceptable that you were failed to identify the issues and given back the vehicle with out with out solving the issues.

So it is service center's responsibility to solve the issues I have reported earlier.

Dear Mr.Abdul,

Greetings from Khivraj Pearl !

This ref to your feedback to RIPL wide ref No[protected] dt 16.7.2016 for your Pulse bearing Reg NO TN07BQ9597. reported for clutch work.

As per the same we would like to draw your attention on the support by us to the extend of 50 % on the cost on clutch sleeve cylinder.

As informed by you the vehicle has reported in March for the clutch issue . Then on checking the vehicle . we didn’t found any issue then to suggest for replacement.


Unfortunately after driving 1400 km and after period of 3 months when reported for the same issues we found find the oil leak now.. Considering your warranty which lapsed

very recently we opted to support you as a Goodwill gesture to the extend of 50 % even though the said part is wear and tear item.

When we checked the history of your vehicle service we came to know that the maintenance service is not as per RIPL recommendation.. .

On inspection we came to know that the vehicle has undergone some outside service which is not supported by RIPL warranty policy .

We regret for the inconvenience caused in this regard and please forward us your approval to carry out the job.


Please contact the under signed or our SM Mr. Krishna Kumar @ [protected]@khivrajrenault.com.

Appreciate your response at least coming in email .But I never seen this much response when we are coming to service I have not escalated to get your Goodwill gesture of 1000 bugs.

This is purely a service deficiency by your service center and I need the justice for that. What did you do for my complaint on clutch, Gear and engine noise on 24th March 2016? Can you explain in detail? Provide me the report of your general check-up you charged me for INR 512 in the attached invoice. None of the complaints which I made verified by you and moreover it looks like there were many other complaints which I didn't know was there. How come now you are giving me quote for 1 lakh bill but none of them were found on your general check-up.

For the noise issue, you suppose to replace the fan motor and self motor. Where is the response for that?

I haven't given the vehicle to any other service center and I already received for warranty part door remote lock issue during last service. My home town is 700 KM from Chennai I found the issue while driving there. I was driving to your service center with driving condition. The nature of the problems doesn't stop to drive the car. It is intermittently block the clutch to non functional. Also the car was giving noise and it is bearable and didn't stop the car to drive. So there is no reason for you to escape from your service responsibility by showing all these.

Here is your Bill for 1 lakh and attached the invoice on general check-up.
