This happens only randomly.Anyone?

I had faced this problem in the 4th month : whenever anyone got out/in of the rear seat - the Suspension would make a noise (creeech creeech). The TASC guys replaced the bushes (in warranty) and since then no problems.

I got all kinds of noises from the rear of my AURA QUADRA starting 6th month. First the TASS changed the bushes in the LH side & last week got my RH raer shocks replaced (both under warranty). In fact I was worried when I was getting lots of squeeking noises from the rear RH, resembling some kind of bearing noise. Thank god, it's only the noise from the shocks. The kind of support I get from the TASS is excellent & the kind of envious looks I get from the MARUTI customers is unbearable.

Guys, incidentally my VISTA is coing to celebrate 1st anniversary tomorrow. 18000kms & still wearing the roads & tires

How long did it take to replace the bushes? I have noticed this sound just once, from the front left suspension. Would it be better if I wait a few months and notice something similar? Or how would it be if i report it to the TASC just a few months before my warranty expires? Would it affect the tires? I am not sure, because it was just a few weeks back that i heard the sound, just once.

Guys check the seats, they could be the real culprit & not the suspension bushes. I too used to experience a funny sound & thought that there was some problem with the suspension but after thorough checks the TASS realized that the problem was with the rear seat fitting.

A weak AC is one of Vista's issues, my brothers car was cooling OK when new, so I though Tata has fixed the problem in the newer one's but just at 10k the performence of the AC has gone down drastically.

At the first service, Tata motors have replaced under warranty the "bearing block(front antiroll bar)" in my Vista as I had complained them about a peculiar sound which used to come from the front suspension after negotiating a road hump. I was told by the service engineer that there is a directive given to them to replace this unit for all Vistas irrespective of whether the owner complains about this or not.

Which TASS u've been to? My TASS at HOSUR keeps me updated on all the developments regarding these kind of issues. I'm yet to get a communication from my TASS. Please provide the details for me to get it verified

I gave my vehicle at 9am (before office) and collected it in 1.00 pm afternoon(lunch time). Fortunately the TASC is nearby (walking distance) my office.

Even I had thought that initially, but it was the Suspension Bush which once replaced - no creeching sound problems.

Concorde Hosur road denies any such directive with respect to front anti roll bar. Kindly clarify

Hi all,

I just got my Vista QJD's air blower motor replaced after complaining for squeaking sounds from AC. TASS (automobile sterling) replaced BEHR motor in warranty and I had also complained for AC ineffectiveness, NCR is very hot these days. They reconfigured the ECU as they have instructions to upgrade the software for AC temp cut. Before the upgrade, AC used to cut at 14 degrees and after the cut, its now at 6.5 degrees. And I must say, I was impressed by their service and professionalism.

AC cooling is so much better now and no more abnormal sounds

Hi
I guess the woes for the tata vista owners are never ending. Unless the quality control department is reined it nothing much is going to improve. Plus when i see owners selling their swifts, i10's to buy indica vista to save on the fuel i feel really sad. Hope this comes around.
Cheers

TASC is trying its best, and at times proactively. Vista is a product, which no competitor can match, in terms of VFM, space, ride-quality, safety. It's been termed as hatch-back sedan. I personally feel swift, i10 don't stand a candle in front of Vista. My personal opinion though.

I agree. I have recently bought a Vista. I feel in terms of fit and finish Tatas have come a long way, though there is still much to be desired but I feel they are trying hard..

I would not advise you to unnecessarily void your extended warranty.

Take a look:

The 60000km service was about Rs 4000 including a wheel bearing change.
