Reference to above purchase of I20 Asta model, I have been facing a typical problem in steering assembly……during jerks in pot holes, road patches/joints it gives feeling as if it has metal to metal contact instead of soft in steering assembly.

By this time, under following service records, I have had free replacement of MDPS two times…still the problem is persisting and now situation is such that even service manager & technicians are also not able to understand the root cause.

On Tuesday i.e.30.3. verbally, I informed Mr. Mandar of Modi Motors (Asst. Service Manager) about repetition of above problem and in turn he informed me that he has lodged/informed complaint to Regional Manager-Western belt Mr. Nishit Shah (Not sure about his name). Today Mr. Mandar confirm that Regional Manager has agreed to give free replacement of MDPS, for which now I have raised strong objection for the replacement because this incidents are happening every after two-three months (can be vouched from the service records) and I obviously cannot carry on with the problem without FUTURE GURANTEE.

The details of Service records are as under.

1. Repair Order No.: R200916458 PRIME 3 dtd.27.9. during this time they put extra washer in MDPS assembly & resolved issue for time being.

2. Repair Order No.: R200920061 PRIME 5 dtd.21.11. during this time they replaced Part no.563101J990 i.e. column & shaft Assembly steering, Mile

3. Repair Order No.: R200921305 Invoice no. B200922113 dtd.11.12. MDPS replaced.

The above incidents has given me tremendous set back & put me in question about product reliability??? I want to know whether any case studies were done with those faulty parts or design validation of steering assembly is not done and if it is done & HMIL is really careful about its product quality then why this problem is persisting?
