A little over one year and 11,000 kms later.
I had been using the ZS extensively for over 2 months when I was back home. The Monday morning after I left, dad claimed that the car refused to start beyond accessory mode. The gear selector didn't work and the car was stationed in the garage.
I assumed this would be a case of overcharging since the charger was connected till way after the car was fully charged, but I have more faith in the cut-off that takes place, at least enough to know that it wouldn't make the car so vegetative.
On summoning an MG technician with a towing van, all efforts went in vain as even the parking brake couldn't be disengaged and the car was still stranded in the garage. After 2-3 days, they managed to disengage the parking brake and roll the car onto a towing van.
Further investigation revealed that this was owed to none other than RODENTS. Luckily, insurance had us covered and we had everything rewired in two weeks. The car is now back home and chugging along as usual.
Speaking of the assistance, we expected better from MG. They took their own sweet time to send someone and were rather laid back to diagnose the problem. The ZS being the economical daily runner made a difference in its absence, where the Mercedes ended up doing daily duties while living up to its typical guzzler characteristics.
