ok guys..following ur advice on driving the car before actually signing the agreement my SA called me to drive the car before he registered it with JPJ.
some points to take. The steering wheel was not aligned, a bit to the left i would say, nevertheless could rectify it no biggie. The one consern for me was the brakes. The brakes in the test unit was solid but in 'my' car it was a bit wobbly but makan. So when u are braking the tyres u can feel its shaking a bit (catch my drift?). So i did an emergency braking test. was doing around 90 when i braked really hard till the ESP beeped. The car braked well but it was followed by a loud bang coming from the front left engine bay.
So my SA told me he would send the car back for diagnosis on whats what and rectify the prob. So next moring i would be driving the car again just to see if its ok. If still lemon i said to him i will request for another car
and he seemed ok with it as he said it has happened before but not until the point the customer was asking for another car. Was supposed to take the car this evening but i said never mind..take ur time rectify everything.. friday still can deliver (i will nt be around till Friday afternoon).
another thing was wind noise coming for the A pillars if driving above 120 was quit loud.. but that was only at certain times.. even exora bold better and my SA acknowledge it by also saying persona better. He then suggested to us to make a complaint after receiving the car and if its common prpton will make a recall to change the rubber seal at the doors.
owh btw i manged to test the car for 40 minutes. So if u saw a silver preve at seremban and senawang just now it was me
.. other than that the car ticks the boxes to become a great car at 73k.
I think new car is normal to behave like that since the brake havent been press enough.some points to take.
