My vehicle TVS Jupiter (DL8SCH6127) got serviced at TVS Rajpoot Workshop, Jahangir Puri, Delhi on 09th October, 2021. A total of Rs.1240/- has been charged towards service and change of oil etc. On the way back, after travelling about 5 kms., there was some issue with starting but somehow I reached back home. Later in the evening, when I tried to start the scooty, it didn’t start at all. I was left with no other option but to take it to a scooter mechanic in my locality. After a diagnosis, he was surprised to know that the vehicle has been serviced just now as the spark plug is very weak and it should have been changed at the time of service only. This raised some suspicion to my mind and I asked him to check the air filter and oil etc. My doubts were turned out to be true. The tube connected to filter was not in place and there was some dust inside filter suggesting that either it was not cleaned or at least not cleaned properly. When the mechanic opened the knob to check engine oil, oil started oozing out and level indicator was suggesting that it is much more than the required quantity. About 100 ml oil was taken out, which according to the mechanic was extra. When I had taken up the issue with the Workshop, concerned person who booked the vehicle for service and the mechanic who serviced straightforwardly refused that nothing of that sort is possible at their end. Their only insistence was that I should have come to the workshop, but don’t know ‘how’ when vehicle is not in a running condition.
This episode is a clear indication of a callous attitude of the concerned workers at Rajpoot’s Workshop towards their work and their expertise in shirking away responsibility/in not accepting that some mistake could have been made by them. It has come to my notice that a large number of complaints have been lodged by customers against M/s TVS Rajpoot. Such bad experiences of customers are certainly tend to bring a bad name to the company and have the potential to hamper the image of TVS, in general.
I hope that the issue at hand may be taken up appropriately by TVS and M/s Rajpoot Motors, Delhi.
