Maruti Suzuki told to pay relief
Chandigarh, February 26 The Mohali-based complainant, who had brought the car in June 2011 from Auto Space Network Pvt Ltd, kept struggling with the problem for six months despite taking the car for repairs regularly. "Over these six months, the complainant, Jaswinder Singh, took his car several times to the Auto Space workshop. Initially, the dealers told him that the problem occurred due to an inappropriate engine mounting-which according to them was common in Maruti A-Star models," said advocate Ravinder Sharma, counsel for the complainant. Despite the replacement of the engine mounting, the problem persisted and the complainant wrote a letter to Maruri Suzuki. The dealers then changed the IC valve of the car in the presence of Maruri Suzuki's territory service manager, yet the problem was not solved. The complainant then wrote a letter requesting both the parties to take back the vehicle and return his money within 15 days. In November 2011, he dropped the vehicle at the dealer's workshop. The complainant alleged that the dealer attended the vehicle for over 10 days and on receipt of a satisfaction report from Maruti Suzuki, he picked his vehicle from the workshop, but observed the same problem before dropping the car at the workshop.
