Hyundai i20
New car defects

I bought an i20 Diesel in Aug and following are the complaints;

1. Parking brake force is insufficient

2. Reverse parking sensor mirror covers IRVM totally; so "shade" feature covered.

3. Door opening weather-strips are not assembled properly; (in fact the RH Rr one is come out)

4. Poor pulling in 2nd gear till 200 rpm

5. Door closing effort - very hard - all 4 door

6. Back door closing not comfortable

7. Room lamp switch - hard

8. Advait Hyundai sticker pasted in A zone of windshield

9. Over-response of steering during speed driving

10. Door opening effort - more - all 4 doors

I have copied below my series of follow-up e-mails to Hyndai Customer Care and till date I have not recevied any satisfactory reply!!

One of customer care executive (Anirudh) called me this morning and was asking for the vehicle registration number to initiate the rectification process on my i20.

I was surprised on this, as 10 days ago I had received call from the same office asking for the vehicle number and I was assured of rectification action then.

When I inquired about this today, the executive was not at all aware of this!! I expected Hyundai Motor to have at least a database ob Customer Complaints and information keyed in as and when received.

I definitely expect a "world class" customer service from Hyundai, so that I am not made to "repent" for coming out of Suzuki's Customer (oriented) list.

Best Regards,

Rajendra

Hello Hyundai Team

Thanks for giving a good i20 Asta (DSL top end model) to me...

Really enjoying the features stuffed into the car.

But I should say, this is the only happy news in my all buying experience.

Advait Hyundai ensured all possible reasons to make my buying an unforgettable one (for not good reasons though)!!

I am forwarding the e-mail I sent to Advait close to a month ago for which there is no response till date!!

Please go through and support.

In addition to this, I have a few more findings in the vehicle;

1. Parking brake force is insufficient

2. Reverse parking sensor mirror covers IRVM totally; so "shade" feature covered.

3. Door opening weather-strips are not assembled properly; (in fact the RH Rr one is come out)

4. Poor pulling in 2nd gear till 200 rpm

5. Door closing effort - very hard - all 4 door

6. Back door closing not comfortable

7. Room lamp switch - hard

8. Advait Hyundai sticker pasted in A zone of windshield

9. Over-response of steering during speed driving

10. Door opening effort - more - all 4 doors

I am planning to share these points with J D Power IQS team for better feedback and countermeasures.

Best Regards,

Rajendra

2. Accessories

Idol - substituted

Mud flap - received

floor mats - received

perfume - not received

3M sun film - received (without discussion on shade)

Reverse parking sensor (Red sole: buzzer with display on mirror) @ INR 1000/- - received, but paid INR -

(In fact, this was further negotiated by Mr. Narasimhan for foc as per his e-mail to Advait copy to me)

Hello Pemmiah

Please go ahead to book the vehicle (i20 Asta 1.4 DSL WHITE color).

As discussed, following are the accessory commitment I received from Advait

1. Basic accessories (Idol, Mud flap, floor mats, perfume, etc.)

2. 3M sun film

3. Reverse parking sensor (Red sole: buzzer with display on mirror) @ INR 1000/-

I would still request to at least get RP sensor (Red sole: buzzer with display on mirror) free of cost

Best Regards,

Rajendra
