Skoda India Complaints & Reviews

Sir
I bought a skoda rapid this year in the month of july bearing chasis no. Tmbbvlna4g018645 and i wish to bring it in your concern that despite of my constant complaints to the dealership regarding some problems i have facing with the windshield wipers, doors, engine sound and i was deceived in believing that the car i bought is a 2017 variant whereas it was a 2016 variant as described on the the r. C. So overall i'm not satisfied with the skoda's consumer service and i'm asking diligently to solve issues i have been facing or i will have to approach consumer court in order to get the justice for the money i have spent on the vehicle.

I (Rishikesh pk) have booked a skida rapid on march and i had cancelled my booking on very next month because of my personal problems and i had submitted the orginal booking form and the rest of the documents which all are needed for my cabcellation and still they dint give my booking refund. I had gone to pinaccle skoda showroom a lot and lot of time and i called the person "krishnakumar" for my cancellation and he infromed it will be credited to my account in 2 days before and till now it was not credited. When i got angry and called him today he talked like a barking dog scolding with badwords through my mobile and shouted to me like hell.

I have each every single talking with him. I will file a case against him with my evidence and i will go through it till the end. The service which pinaccle skoda is giving is utterly ridiculous. This not how you treat a customer. Shame on skoda..😡😡😡

Hi, recently my skoda rapid 1.6 tdi had faced a critical complaint with its fuel injector system, there was a warning and when contacted with service centre they said that this is due to failure of fis, and they said it would cost around 1l, skoda being a renowned company should try and avoid this, and this being a common complaint skoda should try to fix it as soon as possible and should rectify it,

I bought the new skoda octavia 2017 style plus at, in july from krishna auto, chandigarh. I also paid for a navigation card at the time of delivery.

Now the navigation works perfectly fine graphically but the navigation announcements don't work at all. Upon pointing this out to the technical staff at krishna auto, i was told that the navigation announcements are not an available feature. To this i went ahead and showed them the owner's manual of the car, which clearly states that the navigation works both graphically as well as with navigation announcements.

I also pointed out to the technical staff, that the settings menu in the navigation has an independent option to control the volume of the navigation announcements. The settings menu also has an option where a user can control how much the media volume will be lowered when a navigation announcement is in process.

When i asked the technical staff why would skoda owner's manual say the navigation announcement feature is available and also give such detailed navigation announcement volume and other controls, if the feature was not an available, their simplistic answer was "we're sure the feature is not available and if it is we don't know how to activate it's

Post two separate visits to the dealer and futile interaction with it's technical staff, i was handed over the mail id of the skoda sales service rsm, mr jatinder walia. Mr walia even though initially responded very promptly and also ensured i get a call back from the dealer, giving me a lame response"sir the issue has been escalated to skoda czech republic and we'll pass on their response to you by eod" that was 9th of august. Guess the czech republic's end of day is still some time away. Post this bizarre response from the dealer, i've sent reminders to both mr walia and the dealer on regular basis, but as is the norm in india, neither has bothered to respond, hoping that my issue with their gross deficiency in service will just die out.

I hope this forum can assist me in getting my rightful service and skoda will be forced to resolve my issue.

I purchased rapid elegance mt 1.5 tdicr with vinayak cars pvt ltd, sadashivanagar, bangalore-560049. Invoice no. 388 dated[protected]. And was promised from the dealer that vehicle comes with top sticker and side graphics in built from the company and at the time of delivery it was told that there is no stock and will be provided as soon as stock arrives.
As on today 21st august 2017. It has not been provided to us. And also visited showroom n number of times no use. Take action as soon as possible or we have to process through legal.

Thanking you

I have purchased scoda rapid after having good experience with skoda octavia for 12 years. But the experience with rapid automatic has been terrible. The pickup is horrible, the engine raises rpm to 3500 when the gear shifts from 1 to 2 and 2 to 3. After several complaints to the service center and multiple trips the problem has not been solved and the service center has no clue what is going on. They keep telling the the software need to be changed and they do something but the problem has has not been solved. Its very annoying to drive the car. I would never recommend anyone nor take another chance with scoda. Terrible car and horrible service. Never expected this from scoda. The car now is equivalent to trash

I have purchased skoda rapid at 2012 so far it completed 75000km. I have replaced 2 injector already one in 2014 and another one in 2017, now 3rd injector gone.

Since it is 5 year old vehicle, skoda asking me to pay rs 25000 now. I am not sure when will 4th injector will go away. I have asked them to do free of cost as it is injector manufacturing issue but no use. Please suggest me.

Please dont buy skoda cars. Contact me at siva. [protected]@gmail.com if you guys faced same issue.

Good Evening Sir,
I have a Skoda Superb 2010 model and the registration number of my vehicle is WB 06C 5824.
Sir, Actually I belong to a middle-class family background. I brought this car as it was low in cost in car of luxury version. I didn’t expect this much problems will exist in this car. I brought this car on March 28th, 2017. First the celling cloth came out then the gear box got jammed. I belong to Ranaghat which is bit far from the main city Kolkata therefore for towing the car I had to bring a vehicle from Kolkata which charged nearly 9000 just to drop my vehicle in Jia auto, Howrah.
I’ve send my car for a servicing in Skoda service center in Howrah that is Jia Auto for the problem in gear shifting which got stuck and the parking light was blinking. The car was not in running condition as I could not shift the gear as it is DSG gear. I had a telephonic conversation with Mr. Bishwaroop Roy Chowdhury and he said it could be a mechatronics issue in the car, so you have to replace that. But when I gave my car in the service center they found that it didn’t have that problem at all. In fact, first, they told me that it is a gateway problem. And after the following day they said it has a wiring problem which has been solved and your car is been ready to be delivered out.
As I am the 2nd owner of the vehicle and still didn’t even finish with my payment of the car. Even the amount of servicing was rupees 7, 773 which I paid and got delivered my car on 29th of July. After I brought my car back the next day it was working properly but on 31st of July again the same problem started with the car. I gave a call to Mr. Bishwaroop Roy and reported about the matter as it was not solved. He told that he will arrange a technician so that the vas machine could check where the problem is actually. But unfortunately, he didn’t do anything as my house is nearly 100 km’s from the service Centre and on top of that they didn’t even pick up my calls or messages for entire 2 weeks and even the feedback team gave me call but when I told her about this matter she promised to speak with the authority and give me a fruitful response but she also didn’t do anything. I am really very disappointed with the service of the company and the behavior of the company representative and now again saying me to tow down the vehicle there which could cost me more 9000 again and additional charges would be the service cost of the vehicle I don’t know how much and I couldn’t even take out a single penny as I took money from others just to get it repaired but now again facing problems as it was but still now I haven’t paid the money to the lenders yet.
Please Sir, it’s my humble request if the company could take a positive step of doing a towing facility and repair my vehicle so that I can keep this as my dream of owning a luxury vehicle, as it’s my first second hand car. As I brought this car to enjoy the luxury and now becoming mad regarding my car. Please do something regarding my car.

Thanking You.

Amit Kumar Ram.

Unfortunately i had purchased fabia from skoda brand in 2014 regn no dl11ca 4180 with extended warranty from bajaj allianz. My fabia is standing at nawab motors (Noida) from 20 oct 2016 for replacement of e. G. R valve which is a manufacturing product failure issue in skoda brand. The dealership giving explanation that this part had failure due to delay in servicing of car. I have a technical data with me that vw group had replaced e. G. R in large number in india and worldwide due to product failure in their brands. I also know that vw group had stated replacing e. R. G under campaigns or recall action which state that they have manufacturing product failure issues in their brands like e. G. R, a/c compressor, mechtronic, fuel pump, water pump, flywheel cooling coil etc. I can also provide you technical reasons for failure of e. G. R in skoda which is not related to service schedule and data or number of replacement of e. G. R in year 2014, 2015 and 2016 under warranty in skoda. Recently in skoda yeti failure of e. G. R most common.
In my views the motto of skoda should from simply clever to
Simply clever to cheat customer
Request from brand management please consider e. G. R under extended warranty.

Hii
I have brought new skoda rapid in 2015 its not even 2 years old since i have brought this car after 2moths some of my car parts broke down i have repaired it and it was ok after few months some other parts was having problem and till now i am having problem with my car, every now and than one or the other parts is breaking down i think this skoda brand have no quality products . I think they repair scrap cars and selling it as brand new .

Bought new skoda superb in june, 2016. Hardly been 14 months and have already replaced battery (Not covered in warranty) and a tyre (Driven only 14000 km) due to a bulge caused by hitting a pothole.09.08.17 while driving hit a small rock and rear left tyre burst. Jmd auto service centre in bhandup denied taking the responsibility saying it's regular wear and tear

My car has faced a throttle control valve issue, i have been reporting the symptoms of this from last 9 to 12 months and right after my first service i have given a feedback stating the issue on pickup, ac issues and system hanging,,, these service ops guys had no idea what was the root cause. And now they say i have to 35 k to get it fixed...

They do not even have a proper knowledge to understand the sysmptoms and rectify the issue... And just check the system and then they say there is a failure...

I need to talk to the excilation matrix people pls get in-touch with me asap...

I would like to explain the issue in details...

We Purchased Skoda Rapid Automatic ... Reg No GJ-01-RV-2992 on Date[protected] from Torque Auto Ahmedabad .
At the Time of Selling we were committed 1+3 Yrs Warranty by Mr SatyaPrakash but after the delivery its been 1 Yr and we are struggling to get the certificate from the Dealer .
All the Details are Discussed in details with Mr Arun Dubey who is perhaps the most busiest employee of the Corporate World so he can't even reply even if we have sent so many reminders on daily basis for last 10-12 days .
The Other Employees are also marked in the mail but unfortunately there is no reply till date .
Some other person did buy the same car at the same time period and he already got the warranty . The details can be shared if required .

Hope to get what we were committed by the dealer .

I gave my skoda yeti 4*4 car for a service at secunderabad service centre of mahavir - skoda service center.
I forgot to take my goggles (Ray-ban) from over head drop down box which is meant for keeping cooling glasses or spectacles.
After the service was done and when i went for a long tour day before yesterday i found that the glasses were missing.
I reported the matter to the service manager mr. Naresh.
He said he was helpless, he could not find them

My rapid has been having many problems like the injector has been changed twice and again had the same problem and mysore ppl did not help and we're rather rude. When all this happend i had to hand over the vehical to a local mechanic as i could not move the vehical any where. Now the complaint has become regular and the vehical faces this problem after running around 500 kms. Now i need to change this vehical as it it 2012 model pls give me a gud advice about what to do and in which way skoda can help me.
