I got the same problem as yours
i) my driver seat creaked
ii) driver door require bit force to close
iii) front passenger driver not in straight position when close - a bit lower
iv) console between dashboard n steering - not in straight position
v) when change to reverse gear no engage - need to press brake pedal/leave it in 2 secs then ok
vi) car received 3 weeks late than promised eventhough - car already standby at proton dealer before LOU signature

call proton i-care yesterday just to get my report no. as my car distance only at 130km

feedback from them
i) to v)
icare: you need to bring the car to big Service center to check during weekdays only
weekend availability only for service..
me: then i have to apply my annual leave just to bring this car to service center
icare: no other choice you have to bring the car for further inspection
me: what are P1's QC doing in the factory?
......

vi) me: what the hell is the car doing there "dealership"? after LOU approved 3 weeks before? are the car stolen?
      "the problem here is the system at "dealer" which the manger "cant solve" to transfer the money?
so these past 3weeks time i only can see the physical of the car but unable to drive because cant register due to your P1 dealer problem?
icare: you cannot report this because it is less than 1month before LOU signature.. you must refer to the dealer
me: (my heart whisper) if i can punch & fired P1 icare case solver & the responsible dealer manager

so now i need to arrange my time & go to Service Center  doh.gif
*
Yes..can only claim during weekday and have to take leave. Good luck with that. To make thing worse, you need to go multiple time to resolve one issue.

Just take to service center and ask them to check.or if you have OBDII then you can check the car at home yourself.

My exora first time CVT light came on at 16K almost 2 months then now 18K last week twice the light came ON.

But,the first time the light came on,my eb could not move.i pressed the accerator and nothing happens except for RPM going up.

The second time,it came on and my eb was fine.same as the 3rd.so I don't know why my eb did not move in the first time but at the second time it was fine.for the second and third time I suspect the sensor.havent taken it to sc yet.only next service due at 21000KM.

Yes you can take to service center but only on weekdays and some service center also need to do appointment. Imagine the hassle..good luck

some hints on headlamps....

if there is water in the headlamps...take photo of the lamps with your plate # in one picture
reason : once u get to SC all dry up...hard time to convince them  biggrin.gif

Yup..take photo, take video and if can make movies of all defects and used as evidence for SC. If not, SC will say normal maa..proton..what you expect.

Power is no longer the issue with EB. Only quality of part and assembly work.. and that so so service at some SC.

i think you mis-judged something here. they did that indeed.
my 1st batch(2011) BOLD was recalled once to replaced some part due to quality issues on october 2012.
the 2nd notification was given during my 35000KM service on july 2014.
the SC ordered the parts and i'm going to replace it on my 40000KM visit. nod.gif

no advertisement. only mail for the 1st recall and just a note from SC for the 2nd recall, and was told, only 1st batch effected.

Only notice. Why no advertisement like other manufacturer?

Based on this, is RM1083.07 for 60k km service before tax and labor.
Expensive one is the CVT fluid, CVT filter, spark plugs.
Brake fluid also seems to cost higher at P1SC.

Compared to Nissan Livina, 60k service is <RM400, not sure what are included.
*
Also going for 60k km service this week.
Total cost 1k?

Did my EB 60k service this morning. Total cost RM 860. Done in 2.5 hours.

Asked the advisor about water vapour inside headlight claim. He said if water vapour goes away within 15 min after the headlight is turned on then it is not a defect and cannot be claimed. Anyone knows whether it is true or not.

There is also no info or instruction on replacement of radiator so cannot claim.

Need to go to other SC next time.
