Yes it does reflect on the job card. They still haven't closed the Job card so they still haven't given me the final invoice. On the other front, I do not have any issues if I am stuck somewhere down with a problem alone or with friends + wife, but not with only wife alone. That trust will come in some time once I get out for a long drive. This car has never broken down on me and so I am happy for it. @n.devdat I don't care if it is a Jan model or anything anyways. If it can be fixed then let it be fixed. Now I know how so many people have gotten fooled like this including the person who bought it along with me. I hope that she is not facing any problems. Anyways, I am planning to go to media and create awareness about old cars being sold. Whether I get the refund from them or not is a different issue, but I don't want others to suffer as much as me. Let's see. | |

True! That is the problem, I still love it very much! I will try to spin it around tonight and then will call you. The brakes still seems a little flaky to me. I will let you know in the evening anyways. |

It was written 3L at one place: Dev correct me if I am wrong. Why would the chassis cost that much is what I am wondering? Let me get the papers and then I will tell you the actual cost. I think that 60k was for something else. I am not sure because I had to run back to office and anyways, I will get the invoice after everything is done. Quote:
an LX model. I will TD that too to see if there are any differences that I see in them. Quote:

PS: Please let me know if there are any people here who has some contacts in the media preferably in Bangalore in TOI etc. I know some people in Hindu and Indian Express I think. I will dig all the info by this weekend. Last edited by bantejas : 13th July 2009 at 19:29. | |||

| ![]() This is indeed an astonishing, and for TML/Concorde, a shameful chapter of events. I strongly suggest that you write a small story around this and send it to Mr Tata. I am not sure he hears enough of what is happening in the real world of TML customers. He would be very very disappointed, I can assure you. And some good will come out of it - if not directly for you, for future customers. Send it to his residence, I am sure you will be able to find out his address. |

As per my recollection it was INR 110000.00 for the chassis. bantejas, Were you able to drive your friend's vehicle yesterday? If yes could you find any noticeable difference? I checked out a 25k run 2.2 last night just to have a feel of it compared to your truck and was satisfied to a great extent. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Tejas, I'm shocked to learn that this is a January 2009 vehicle that is being passed on to you in May! Where was the vehicle all this while, I'm sure the demand for 4x4 Safaris is not that low? I'm not being a damp squib here but I hope that you don't keep facing fresh issues every day!!!

The EX 4x4 is not a model that sells the most. I think that people either go for LX or VX4x2/VX 4x4. I have a basic doubt: Does the VIN number reflect the day actually the chassis was built or the day when the Vehicle was made ready to drive? I think that it is the latter but just wanted to know if I am still wrong. I have spoken to the dealer yesterday and to the Tata Sales Head too. He was a little surprised. I hope that I will get a call today from the dealers. However this issue has been escalated already as the TASS in the morning asked me if I had lodged a complaint with the dealers about it. I am trying to get some info about my vehicle's PDI and more papers. I hope that I will get it by this weekend. | |

Correct - it is the batch/date when the vehicle is ready to be driven. |
