We have purchased a car (Fiat Linea) on 16th June 2009. It’s a luxury car
but within a week we have started facing problems like tyre of the car
got burst in between the drive. Again around mid of august after two
months of purchase of car clutch got failed and the car was stuck in the
mid of the road. And on 29th of august shockers of the car started giving
some unexpected sounds.

All these have been told to the showroom and they told us that they would
be picking up the car for repair work but since then it’s been 5 days and
there is no reaction from their side. We were not expecting this kind of
service from manufactures of a luxury car.

We think that the car sold to us was a defective piece and the company
should replace it.



Thanking You

I have visited ABS workshop in Gurgaon,Haryana for more than 10 times if you can take out the History of Vehicle, you can find out that I was facing problem of Coolant Leakeage, which was resolved after I visited three times at ABS Motors Gurgaon
2nd problem I am facing is of Air Leakeage and A/c probelm, I went again and which they have asked to leave the vehicle for two days, to inspect and fix the problem, which I have to make a visit.
3rd problem I am facing of Tyres on my rear right I have got four punchers and all of them are on both side of the tyres which doest not touch the road. It is shocking because I can confirm you that no one did it intensionally as I got my parking fixed at both the places Home & Office. moreover there is one puncture on the inner side of the tyre which no body can try to puncture it.

I am so much apprehensive now, that I cannot recomend for this vehicle, though two people have actually bought this on my recomendation, but you are buying a car of 8 Lakhs and in just five months so many visits so many complains, cannot digest.

Dear Sir,

Kindly provide us the details related to your vehicle and it's purchase, as soon as possible.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I would like to point out the tremendous suffering I am undergoing on buying FIAT Linea in May 2009.
My wife was driving FIAT Linea on Surajkund Road on 4th August 2009.
I was sitting on her side .
Suddenly a big stone came towards our car from the back wheel of HONDA City moving ahead of us .
Before my wife could react the stone came & hit the bottom of the car .
She stopped the car immediately on the side of the road & switched off the Engine .
We saw little oil leaking from the bottom & so we stopped the ignition of the car .
We had heard about cases where cars bottom getting damaged & then leaking of oil.

We then manually pushed the car off the road .
Subsequently car was towed to Tayal Motors (Authorised Showroom of FIAT/ Tata in Faridabad).
Subsequently it was found that Car engine had ceased after the damage to chamber at the car bottom.
Reliance Insurance has declined to bear the cost of engine though this happened because of accident on the road. My first complaint is against Reliance who is not bearing the cost of Engine despite the fact that we had valid Reliance policy No 1303792311002934 Dtd 6th May 2009.
My second complaint is against FIAT whose engine is so delicate that it can easily get damaged with a stone on the road . Stones are very common on Indian Road so possibly this car has not been designed from Indian roads. Another aspect is slow service back up from FIAT & TATAs . I have numerous mails written to TAYAL Motors (The authorised show room)/ The Tatas . Besides I had several phone discussions with the authorised representatives at TAYAL/ TATA Motors & FIAT representatives in India .
Despite this fact My car is in TAYAL Motors since 4th August 2009 .
Looking forward to get car repaired at priority .
At this stage in addition to the Engine cost I should also be compensated for the harassment of not having a car since 4th August

Thanks & regards

I have bought a fiat linea emotion pk petrol version through CSD from ASPI Universal motors, Ahmedabad. I went to take the delivery of my car on 07 jan 10. When I was about to leave with the car, i noticed a spot on the dashboard. I told the dealer about the same and he told me that its just a minor spot and I should not worry about it. They then agreed to paint the dashboard but it was nothing as compared to a new car. I refused to take the car in the same condition but he was adamant that since its a manufacturing defect, they cannot do anything about it. I told them that I would complain about the same to the company, but they told me that nothing can be done about it and I would have to accept the car in the same state. After a heated argument they agreed to change the dashboard,but later told me that since mine is an airbag version, they would not be able to replace the dashboard. After I spoke to their manager, they agreed and committed to deliver the vehicle on 10 jan 10. On 09 jan 10 at around 1900 hrs, I received a call from the dealer that they cannot change the dashboard and they'll repaint it and deliver the car to me. I refused to accept the car in such a condition since I'm not buying a second hand car, and am paying the full amount. Another issue is regarding the delivery of the car. I was told that my car would take around a month to be delivered, but when I went to ahmedabad, I was told that my car has reached and I can take the delivery the same day. I doubt that since there was some problem with car so the dealer was trying his best to deliver the car to me since I'm staying in jamnagar and cannot come to ahmedabad regularly. I have not taken the delivery of my car will not do so till the time this issue is resolved. Its been 5 days since then and i have put numerous complaints but have not received any response from the company or the dealer and my car is lying in the same state with the dealer.

I want to register a complaint against BU Bhandari auto.pvt.ltd.,a fiat dealer pune.

I purchased fiat linea-register no.MH12FF6070 in feb 2009,
15 days after the purchase,the electronic key did not work properly, so we complained to BU Bhandari auto.pvt.ltd pune. After that we sent the car thrice to the BU Bhandari workshop and once to the Ranzangaon factory to get the key in the proper condition but there is no result till date.They did not give us the code number.We made nearby hundreds of phone calls but got no result.

I have only 1 duplicate non-electronic key,if that key is lost then how do we use the car without a key?





Thanking you

from day one of the purchase.

1.. Front Panel button gone inside
2. Cooling of AC very poor .
3. plastic part is very poor..
4 Low Mileage. As low as 10.5 km on NH approximate.

I personally feel that I was cheated on this particular car, and have gone for Maruti Dzire & Swift,

I have driven it only 1400 km. & car purchase before six month
My son called up your sales person at delhi what he says why you are complaing now
after 1 month secondly he says you must have driven the good no of Kms, so he means
a car is a show peace.

Some of the faults were informed to the dealer ( RAMA MOTOR OKHLA ) while on way

I purchased the car in May 2009 and used hardly 15500+ kms and in March 10 all of a sudden car A/C stopped functioning. I showed to M/s Pandit Auto, Tilak Road, Pune from where I got serviced servicing of 15000 kms recently. They kept the car with them for 5 days and returned to me saying that its ok now. It went on well for a 4 days and again A/c stopped working, so I again gave my car to them for fault finding. They kept the car for another 21 days with and were telling me that FIAT engineers are working on it and finally gave it to me on 18th May evening. I drove it for about 40 kms on 19th/20th May and on 21th May morning again the A/c stopped working.

I gave my car for repairs again on 21st May at 9 am to them and till writing of this complaint no body from FIAT have even went and attended my car at Pandit Auto. I came to know that there are many cars, somewhere around 50+ in Pune are facing the same problem and thick skinned FIAT Service section is either not responding or responding in similar manner. They have confirmed that it's a genuine manufacturing problem and till this day they do not have any solution to the same.
