[Resolved]  Zoom Car — maintenance charges being charged to customer

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka
Website:www.zoomcar.com

I had booked a zoom car vehicle as per booking reference jps6ftz6m from 1st march 3:30 am to 4th march 11:30 pm from and to bangalore airport. Vehicle received had already done 99106kms and the body had many scratches/dents/damages. Marked the same on the app and used the car anyway as i was in urgency. On my way to returning the car, i felt slight hard shifting to first gear and since i had no problem, i did not register a complaint but mentioned the same to the staff who collected the car. I drove a total of about 350kms only. Two days after returning the car they informed me i have damaged the clutch plate and charged me 10, 000 rs for the same. I feel this is absolute day light robbery. Used care of almost 100, 000 kms which i drove for 350 kms and i am charged for clutch problem. I have worked in the automotive industry for 25 years and i know what is wrong and right. I feel cheated, badly and will always give negative reviews for zoom and inform every one of the same.
If they understand the situation and refund my amount i will accept that resolution with an apology.

Hello Sajai,

Greetings!

We understand your concern here.

We did check and see that the charge levied on the booking is valid, as the clutch plate is damaged during your reservation. Hence, we have levied the charge.

We regret we will not be able to reverse the charge.

Regards,
Ramya. S

Hello Sajai,

We understand your concern here, however, post the internal assessment of the vehicle we see that the clutch was damaged due to the customer negligence. Hence, the charges are levied accordingly.

Ok Noted, see you in consumer court. Please note, I am not too bothered about the money, but the basic principle. All the best.
