service issues

Address: A64, Udadhi Tarang. Next to JW Mariott Hotel, Juhu Tara Hotel, Juhu, Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400049

Dear skoda / volkswagen - worldwide customer relation / service managers,

Poor Service

Address: North Delhi, Delhi

Very poor customer service from Fahrenheit Automobiles.
The worst car dealers I've come across. Sales executives lie about product features and packages.
No service in the sense you will have to call 20 times to confirm one thing they will not call you, every time they ask for 1/2 hrs. for responding back but you can call after2 hrs. for same reply.

I got delivery of my car after 1 & 1/2 months of booking...

useless service

on 25th of march 08, my octavia l&k had a punctured tyre. But the tyre bolt heads were slipped. They needed to be removed by only cutting or welding.

He just left the site in just a few seconds.
Useless service.
