Here is a big gripe:
I just found that one of the tyre has a sidewall puncture. Ideally I want that tyre replaced. But GV comes with a non-standard tyre size of 225/70R16, not really available in India. So I can't get a replacement in a hurry. If I can't get a steering cover, can I get a tyre?
GV is delivered with different tyre options across the world, why can't Maruti insist that Suzuki delivering the GV with a tyre size that is common in India? If they did that, I could have easily upgraded the tyre upon delivery by swaping new H/T tyres for new A/T tyres. But now I am stuck with OE tyres which I can't exchange. In case of damage, I can't get an easy replacement either. Frankly I don't want to buy another OE H/T tyre when I eventually want to move over to A/T tyres.

They said they can get parts easily since it is officially being imported by Maruti, and they have sold a good number of GV. Anyway, they were just giving sales pitch. I don't think they really knew the issues.
