@kaizen: If this post is good demo of Japanese management/manufacturing or Kaizen spirit then I am glad that I did not buy a Honda
.
By the way one could not be sued for sending legal notice and filing case in court of law.
Defamation case could have been filed when allegations appeared in public/press that initial Bharat 3 batch of Honda City was not actually , Bharat Stage 3 and later honda quietly recalled the customers and did replacements at customers cost during the Service. Honda could have proved this is indeed not true , but such stories were rife and HSCL never refuted them.
In my personal openion as long as Indians consumers are sucker for foreign brands and continue buying cars at 2X / 3x of what they cost ex dealership in developed countries ( excluding taxes) just for brand sake without looking for Value , they well continue to be taken for granted by these manufacturers. And before any one argues on cost structure part please remember automobile components at OEM supplier costs and labour costs in India are peanuts compared to USA, Japan or UK.
I am not against all foreign auto manufacturers though Maruti-Suzuki and Hyundai are good example.
