My problematic XUV300 met with an accident: Should I keep or sell it

I met with an accident and there was a good amount of damage to the under chassis, radiator and both front doors.

Hello!

Not so long ago that I bought a and since the first 3 months there hasn't been a single time that I haven't faced issues of many kinds. Firstly, an issue with the steering link, then some issues with the interior fittings, an issue with a light on the console constantly blinking 'Transmission Failure' and many more.

About 2 months ago, I met with an accident and there was a good amount of damage to the under chassis, radiator and both front doors. All the insurance formalities were completed and even after almost 2 months I haven't received my car. The 'work' on the car apparently started 7 days ago and supposedly will take more time. The service quality and communication is extremely pathetic. I have owned M&S and Hyundai cars and compared to them, the service quality is extremely pathetic.

Now to the big question. In a few weeks' time, I will complete a year owning this car. Owing to these experiences, should I keep or sell the car?

Here's what GTO had to say on the matter:

You got the AMT which is the worst possible transmission and on top, it's a Mahindra AMT...the company has the poorest tuning of AMTs. Your car has niggles and now you've had a big crash.

• Sell the car.
• Please think a long, hard time before buying the next car for yourself. Your posting / thread history shows you bought an Alcazar, then sold it within a short while of ownership. You had a Brezza which you regret selling. You started a "What Car" thread and no one really recommended the XUV300 AMT to you. You still bought it.

You are blowing way too much money buying the wrong cars. Sell the XUV300 D-AMT, do some proper research and then, buy your next car.

Here's what BHPian OpenRoads had to say on the matter:

I think you are not asking the right question. In my opinion the right question should be - What or who made you buy a M&M XUV300 W8 D AMT at the first place?

If it is someone other than yourself then you should think twice before making another decision.

In case its you then you are already saved. Use the What Car forum to write your requirement and you have tons of free advise for your next endeavor.

Oh wait! Did I say NEXT? Yeah! you should definitely sell your car and get something which will let you keep your sanity in check.

Here's what BHPian svsantosh had to say on the matter:

Consider it a 3Lac loss over 1 year of ownership, trade it in for a Brezza or Creta and forget that you ever had a XUV300!

You are better off with known for quality and well received in market products.
