Thinking of rotating my rear tyre to front and front to back, I'm too broke to change new one xD. On the other side note, I never spent any $$ on my persona apart of paying the fuel/monthly commitment XD

scary moment, i presumme owner still on stock typre - silverstone? I change to Tripplemax the next day i got my car... nvr had a chance to try out ESC.
*
I'm the owner of the video, was cruising 110km/h like I always used too but this time it's rain basically the road is wet. After this I only dare 80/90 only, don't want to clinch my butt anymore annnnnd you shouldn't wish this case happened to you. Even with ESC it will not save you 100%,it lower the chances of you hitting anything but you still responsible on controlling the car. The ESC only does 30~40% of controlling, the rest is yours.

Ur driving too fast, corner like this normally will limit under 60km/h.

Ya, my mistake that's why I don't take corners like that ever again.

QUOTE(cktang @ Nov 19 2017, 10:17 PM)
U drove too fast bro, without vsc possibly behind tyre will skeech to the front then your car will be berpusing circle at the middle of the road. Beside rainning wet road the wind also a factor. Drive slower, safety first.
*
Agree with this, need to takes all environment as factor contribute to accident. Before this i actually drive saga blm, this actually were like what 1 week/2 week after getting the car, the handling really sedap that's why i thought can take corners like that, didn't the road were slippery like hell.


QUOTE(amscouzach57 @ Nov 19 2017, 06:34 PM)
It is advisable not to drive above 80km/h at the corner/bend.

You are right. When you are in a similar situation where you feel like loosing control (or traction) of the car, don't panic. Don't slam the brakes as hard as you can. Don't let go of the steering wheel, be ready to react immediately as soon as your car gains traction again. Having ESC does help a lot in these situations.

I had experienced something similar during heavy rain. However the car I was driving does not have ESC & was running on Silverstone Synergy M5s. After that incident I'll  never used Silverstone tyres ever again
*
yeah, I notice using silverstone always skid alot, maybe the threaded become halus already. I'm thinking on rotating my back tyre to front this way can save alot of money and expand the tyre thread expactancy to like what 3 years? after that can change new one.

I doubt that proton will give 6 air bag to every variant on next release, most is 4 air bags while premium getting the absolute best if not, there's no brainer why would anyone goes to premium when standard have all the tech UNLESS proton put in like what? auto cruise control, auto climate control or maybe lane watching but that's just a speculation.

Ouch if the damage only include the bonet and bumper only took like range 1week to 2 week depend with SC, suggest if you claim insurance better to do it at COSE because they can get the replacement part faster.

I think ur cornering technique is good till suddenly u swerved to the left. What happened? Car skidded? But I didnt hear ur tires screeching and esc activated. When ur left tires off road then only I heard ur tires screeching and esc activated.
Probably u lost focus a bit that caused u to swerve to the left.
*
It was rainy that day, I didn't counted the slippery road condition. The swerve started when it entered the most tajam corner one, i just noticed my car were heading to left lane already, when I try to control back it started to bunyi like that, need to control one. My butt clinch so hard at this time and my heart were racing like crazy, I just got the car for like 1 week before that happened xD

Bumper and bonet kemek. Later getting police report and go to Proton workshop in Penang Island. Don't know how long it will take.

Yours would probably would takes 1 week if the replacement part already there and also there is no other car service at that SC. Futhermore, knock from behind is faster repair than front, front need to adjust calibrate some more.

Bumper defect issue.

1st SC visit, refit bumper. Ok for few days and popped out again
2nd SC visit(during first 1k KM service), refit again. After few days popped out again.
3rd SC decided to go COSE. Heard there very canggih. Refit again. After 1 week popped out again
4th SC visit, change the bumper bracket inside. After 1 week, popped out again.
5th SC visit, claim approved to change new bumper.

But, changing bumper is the worst decision ever. Was told before hand had to leave car 2-3 days for the bumper replacement + paint job. Then i asked is it possible to spray the bumper and i just go install. Was told there will be "slightly" off if did not leave car there. Since car is about 4 months old, i guess slightly should be ok. And the slightly turn out to be :
maybe i too sensitive, this is just slightly off
*
It's way off brother, if it's noticeable and it's way off. Is there any option to repaint? sore eyes to see everyday if like this.

Cose ask to email wecare.
Wecare ask to deal back with cose.
Cose say that before do already said will slightly off(I don't have extra car to leave car at SC for 3days so requested if can paint first) and I say I can accept if slightly off due to car about 4months should not be much ageing issue on paint.

Send in car 9am. Actually just to pasang bumper only(since they paint it earlier). 12pm told me 3-4pm only can collect car. Coz after pasang they feel very different. Wanna touch up. So I ok lor wait. But after that come out also I see way diff. Abit lose hope Liao. Day1 bumper issue until now. The more try to fix the more it getting worst. Zzz

So how now? they mention they will repaint it back and you cover the bill or what?

asked back COSE the other day. CAOSE SA say I am the one who agreed that it will be slight different if i dont leave my car for 3days there.
What else i can say. I just email wecare with some attached photo if they can help out in this case.
Coz i dont think that is slight different. I googled those that complaint there bumper after repaint got slight different, those are real slight different.
Wat i got for me is quite huge different(i think workshop also realize, since at 12pm they extended the time to 3pm+ due to they need to try to touch up).
LOL, would not going back COSE, actually its quite far from me. I tot COSE is the HQ, but the SA say email to HQ(wecare), their SC is not HQ.
*
You can actually fight this case if you want too, you can mention previously SA mention slight different wouldn't be something like this, even in picture posted in forum is very noticeable but it will takes so much times to fight, with exchange email, calls, going to HQ and everything. You might get your bumper repaint for free but I don't know if it's worth the hassle.

COSE just called back and asked me to go back and leave car for them to respray ..
Duno the SC will dulan or not. Later sabotage my car. And need arrange transport. Leave car there need take public transport 60kM back home.
Then collection time need take public transport 60Km to COSE.

Paint outside RM250-300
Go back COSE - Public transport mayb about RM100. + risk of kena sabotage as workshop sure not happy ..

Hard call.  rclxub.gif

Call them if there is any sub car or not, if not you need to find a friend la ferry you back home. Just belanja roti canai milo ais jadi la. Seems like they took responsibility la. Around cose theres grab or uber, maybe can check the fare first .
