hi, just got my 1.6 Bronze Just sharing my experience here:

Ordered: 11 March 2010
Collected : 6 April 2010
Showroom: Old Klang Road

Comments on Car :
Awesome ! Worth every ringgit !

Comments on Service by Sales Agent:
Lousy.

1) SA arranged for car dealer to evaluate my old ride. Met some 2nd hand car dealer at the showroom with SA. all agreed to gimme 8.3K. 2 weeks later when i surrendered the car for the downpayment, SA calls me a few hours after i have left the car and says my car is not worth 8.3K. Dealer only wants to pay 7.8K. i give SA and dealer a piece of my mind over phone. they say last offer is 8K. i have no choice but to take it, since car and downpayment already with them. All SA can say was "sorry la... i pun tak tau itu dealer ini macam punya ..."  F them ! that is the usual fella they always call !

2) 1 day before i collected my car, SA say car ready in Rawang. so i thought i will follow him to go rawang to collect car ... called him the day before, he said ok, can come. called him on that day 10am, he say will confirm again, but should be ready. i take half day off la. called him at 12noon to confirm, he says he'll call back to confirm in a while. doesnt call me back by 1pm, so i call him back, he does not pick up. only 3:30pm la the fella calls me back and say " sorry la, itu JPJ banyak lambat, hari ini tak boleh ambik." bloody wasted my time la ...

3) on the actual day of car collection, i told SA to go get my car from Rawang, i'm not bloody following since kena tipu already. so he takes KTM to Rawang and drives my car back. (hope he didnt thrash it!).  SA previously agreed to give me smarttag.  i called him before he left and asked for a full tank also la... he say ok. when i went to get the car, he say i told him to replace full tank with smart tag. which i never did... argued for a while, then he know he never made it clear to me ... so he says " sorry la, i satu kereta 600-700 untung saja, mana cukup makan .... " and along with other sad stories of his life .... for half hour .... WTF !

i caught his branch manager to tell my stories, apparently his branch manager agrees that SA has miscommunication problems !! Branch manager gave me a whole lot of sales BS also ....

in short, i would not recommend my friends to buy from there, but i definitely would get them to buy the car ! Driving it now, sorta wipes away all the crap the SA gave me....

My advice to buyers .... make the SA fella & the fella who's going to take your old car write in black & white

- trade in value of your old car
- freebies you will get
- date of car collection

ask them to also write if they fail to meet, they have to give you discounts ..... (i've never tried this, but can someone tell me if this works) .
Some SA thinks they can BS their way all the time....

Sounds pretty familiar to my case in Juru branch. I tell you, 99% of N**a SA sucks! Every Fortezen will agree with me!

All The Fortezen:
This evening,around 9pm,Plan to perform HARD BREAK IN on my engine.Had service my forte last week and currently my milage is 1800km.Drive away my car to Highway(Jelutong expressway-Penang) and After observe a safe condition,start to hard Break In my engine.shift the gear to shiftronic,Ready and Go.....!

1st attempt:Push the pedal until RPM reached redline(close to k Rpm)the gear shifted to to 2nd gear.However, during the rpm attempt to reached redline at 2nd gear to 3rd gear, the road was too busy and I hv no choice,manually shift the gear to 3rd and 4th gear before it reached rpm redline and shift the gear itself.hmmm...nevermind..try again. cry.gif
2nd attempt:1st,2nd and 3rd gear successfully auto shifted as per 1st try,however I cudn't make it untill 4th gear due to road slight busy.Some more, During reached RPM 5k-6.5k at 3rd gear,The spedometer already close to 150k++km/H and the engine still roaring asking for mure pushing on the speed pedal to reach redline...still unable to make it ill 4th gear!  drool.gif
3rd attempt:also still cudn't make it till 4th gear....wrong timing loooooo...huhu.

The best part is, the engine temperature still maintain below half indicator even on the engine roaring hard...Plan to try again this midnite or tomorrow.

Expertise:Is it the correct way for Engine Hard Break IN??? Normally how many time I need to do this? blink.gif

Pls Advice....

Going for my first 1000km service tomorrow morning at Jalan Tandang SC. Any forum members heading there too?? smile.gif

TWO issues hopefully can be resolved:
1.) Squeeking sound at driver's seat
2.) Rattling sound at driver side door when going on bumpy roads.

Nightsoldier,
Please update on 2) after resolved. Take picture if possible. smile.gif

I'm anxiously waiting for the Kia Rio. Normally KIA cars are nicer compared to the already stunning Hyundais. So wait & see. biggrin.gif
If the new Kia Rio & this Accent selling for RM60K, it will be very popular! Way to go, Koreans!
Koreans should start with smaller cars, make ppl very satisfied with their cars so when it's time to upgrade to a bigger car, they will stick with the brand & get the bigger cars in the stable.
