1) Call up the customer care guy.
2) Shout, shout, shout !!
2) Ask for his supervisor.
3) Shout, shout, shout !!
4) Register a complaint mentioning that you were forced into paying the entire amount upfront. Show your interest in the cancellation of your booking.
5) Shout, shout, shout !!
6) Insist on a complaint number (Very important)
7) Don't shout. Its your throat.
8) Bear with his sympathies.
9) Wait for your dealer to call you.
And in case he asks you to get in touch with the regional office, don't buy his crap. The regional office guys here are the biggest jerks. They will take down your complain and do just nothing.

Does Dzire has more lagroom compare to Swift ?

Apparently no; but they say that the inclination of the rear seat has been increased and there are opposing views on whether this is good or not!

Does Dzire come with a security alarm that goes off if someone opens the door with a different key?

The Vxi model that I have has a remote for locking/ unlocking; am sure the security system will raise an alarm. By the way, how can someone open the door with a different key? Beats me.
In addition to the above, all Marutis have 'iCATS' - Intelligent Computerised Anti-Theft System. To quote from the DZiRE pdf, 'Intelligent, Computerised Anti-Theft System checks the key for the correct code before allowing the engine to start. It prevents vehicle engine from starting, even if a duplicate (mechanical shape) key is used.'

Even at position '0' I am not sure if the 'high beam' is sufficeintly high. May be that is how high the beam should be according to current safety standards.

As of now only diesel test drive cars. May be Maruti has a bigger profit margin on the diesels and hence it is marketing them more aggressively!

Please update how the car performs and follow the run-in periods. enjoy driving :)
One quick question: How is the steering response during cornering ?
|
Will do. Yes, following the run-in period diligently. Steering response - feels ok with the conservative driving that I am doing. Not trying any imaginary or real slaloms!

Congrats on the car! Yes, the so called 'eruptions' in the lower body is designed to keep off dust (or other purposes). It is there in my SX4 too. But it have a thick plastic coating above the erruption (or matte finish).

Congratz Murugan nice car and color.
The rough bit on the running board is to make it wash friendly, ie stubborn stains can be removed without worrying about scratches. Most of the new age cars have this, its a kind of plastic mix coating which does some sound deadening as well as running board protection.
|
I dont know if it is a consolation that the Swifts and SX4s are having it; the sales executives gave me similar replies.
Please see the pics below and advice. These pics are from the test drive car and the ones on mine are similar. :eek:

Another view is that maybe Maruti wants to put its best foot forward by providing diesel as test drive vehicles. Maruti is not providing any better delivery dates for diesels if it indeed wanted to cash in on the profit margins.
Reviews online which say that a diesel is more fun to drive than the petrol, petrol needs to be revved hard to have some spirited drive & petrol dzire is not as peppy as its predecessor Esteem.
Is petrol Dzire recommended only for staid driving?

I dont thing shouting is a civilised way of getting your way (but it works many times in Indian context).
Maruti is clearly not backing up the dealers with their commited delivery dates, it has happened in the past with Swift diesel & SX4 where waiting was extended.
A buyer unless desperate should avoid giving entire payment upfront, unless the dealer commits the delivery date on letter head and penalty for delays.
Till the time Maruti makes the booking process transparent and delivery schedule trackable we will keep having such and many scenes of customers kept waiting due to delays from manufacturer or unscrupulous dealers selling alloted car to premium paying customers.

I've noticed this too, it is on all Swifts and SX4. I looked under all swifts & sx4s that were at the dealer's yard when I went to pick up my SX4 and all of them had the same finish.

for the checking of the code, i think the battery has to be started. Is it possible (not possible) to do the 'dhakka start'. That is slot it in the 2nd, depress the clutch, push the car to some distance, leave the clutch the car engine cranks up - this technique works with my car - indica dls 2003. Does this system also provide security against this???
I have also paid full amount now. (Had booked Zdi). The waiting period as they say is now 2-3 months. No committment on delivery date though. Does the choice of colour also decides delivery timelines, as I think same colour cars are manufactured in batches and they need some threshold amout of bookings to start building a batch ?
I have booked ZXI and wait period is 3-4 months.Is there a way to get the allotment number and engine number, How long it will take , I tried Martui customer care, but they guided me to Dealer ... ? Any one got this information from Bangalore dealers?
What is the waiting period for Zdi model in Bangalore?
Any owners: Can you put FE figures for the DZire diesel?

Bimal Indiranagar - 4 to 4.5 months with 50K as booking amount. You can talk to a guy named Rajesh from Bimal. His cell # is 9980139961.
No one in bangalore is ready to take booking for Swift VDI with ABS.
I talked to regional manager and they said they will get a car within 2months. Booking amount is 50K.
I tried for Dzire ZDI and they said its 6 months.:Frustrati

I booked a Swift VDI ABS with Mandovi Motors through LeasePlan. Tentative delivery date showed a waiting period of 4 Months :Frustrati !!!!
It works on RFid and no amount of dhakka's will start it up as its linked to the ECU and ECU will not let the engine start till the code matches.
