Yea I can see some people at Proton have the heart, just not the will.

I read that the power window lifetime warranty came about after the Proton CEO took a cab from KLIA, it was a Waja and the driver don't wanna open the window to pay toll. The driver uncle told him Proton power window always rosak, dowan to open too often. The CEO was so embarrased that's why he decide to offer the lifetime warranty (Read this from the Star newspaper, dunno whether the CEO got bluff anot lah).

I wish Proton all the best, but hopefully not at the expense of the consumers.

Glad you are enjoying your ride

No la, it's the same as paying RM 150 annually for a medical card which insures you up to RM20k of hospitalization fees every year.

Insurance companies earn money by investing the premiums the policyholders pay (which is a shitload of money), and hope that none of their policyholder claim the money. Their actuaries have crunched the numbers many times before coming up with the RM300 figure.

It is legally not a fraud, but you must be very careful with the fine print.

Eh...the car insurance policy last for one year only ma right? means the coverage for death (rm300) is also in force only for one year gua?

Else next year you change other insurance company they also cover your death meh?

This is such a macabre discussion...it's like after I die from car accident, my family will go "YES! got free car!"

If like that then yea it makes little sense. My impression was that the death coverage is simply a rider with the car insurance policy that will expire at the same time.

I think we can agree you should consult your agent or lawyer if you have any doubts.
