Hi,
No wonder they are rated No1 in JD Asia-Customer satisfaction.
Pleased to note it is a Happy Ending.
I am convinced that i made the right decision in buying the SX-4 from Maruti.That was the only reason i picked it.

Moral of the story-Never go for a long drive with even minor issues in the car.

Buddy, reading the post actually made me feel scared.
Good that everything came out well, and i am frankly surprised by the bill amount !!

You switch on the flash & see 100s of eyes goring into you. Hyenas, about 150 of them waiting to pounce on you. Just then there is a honk honk & you see the headlights of the TATA 207 coming up the hill & run as fast as you can towards your car with the hyenas right behind you.

You read far too many novels.

ya. Even i felt it was a nice gesture on the part of the kerala gov.

There may be criticisms, but I guess Steve Irwin did a lot to make animal planet and nature conservation more popular.

True- Didnt realise it was such an issue, cause WagonR box is said to be notchy.

Ya. But considering we had to drive nearly an hour to get there, the time they took is 'OK' (considering it was a sunday too, and the service station has off-day)

a broken gear shaft. scary - but maruti knowing about its defects must have realised and hence has such a good A$$!

[abhi182]

^^ I really can't think of any other manufacturer giving this kind of A$$

In fact the A$$ level were the primary reason we opted for a maruti swift for the second car (esp having burnt my hands with my existing Opel Corsa, and the legendary service level of the sole GM service center in Chennai, Sundaram)

What defect does a Maruti Suzuki vehicle usually has?
All that i have had in the last 8 years of association with maruti is rattling panels.

In this case, something must have hit the underbody hard, and maruti cannot be blamed as such. Cause the rod is alloy and it broke off.

I hope you dont sleep while driving! What all i tried, to stop you today?

Saw the car that was going left and right around you, at east fort, when you were going at around 10pm today?

And ya, it was that day only.

About the bill, will post the details in this thread tomorrow.

[Zappo]

200 rupees for towing a vehicle 40 kms (80 both way drive) and then fixing up a gearbox join, all for only 200 bucks?!!! You sure those guys were not doping when they made the bill? I mean being a sunday and a holiday for them, you never know
