Own a Preve turbo 2015 model with extended warranty. After 3 days collect the new car having gearbox issue where can't engage the gear. I need to off and restart to engage the gear. Went to service centre few times they unable to rectify the issue. Lastly went to COSE they rectify it after changing few parts. At month 3 power steering fluid leaking. At month 8 radio unit spoil, At month 18 air cord fuse box spoil. All these foc replace. Recently radiator fan and Alternator spoil proton rejected warranty although is under extended warranty. I rarely use the car as I normally taking public transport to work yet many problem. Normally use the car on weekend or during holiday.

still have the preve auto punch ctv 2013 labrat
really great at emptying my wallet to buy petrol so much
still use for holidays and long journey cause the sense of safety
not a good city car especially if stucked in traffic jam
so weekday use perodua since cheaper petrol
weekend or holiday or bringing family to give comfort only then preve

Best if proton only becomes a Geely model importers on our market and we can get the latest technology on automotive at our market with competitive price. Be it without geely, we keep having MaCampro engine until 2050, Punch suck CVT which they no ball to remove from their line. And we dont ever get chance having a GDI engine with DCT

Suprima - because of that annoying radio ad that kept playing on loop claiming its "great".

Well a closed box with multiple relay next to each other that awalys engaged would do that. Need tebuk lubang for air to vent out maybe better

Before geely takeover proton saga 2016 has uneven color for the plastics inside. Door and dashboard different colors dont March. Don't know how this was approved.

Still have 2012 Preve

- 207 000+ KM
- Every 1 1/2 year change bulb
- still original punch cvt, no problem yet
- 1 time towing due to OCH pecah
- 1 time change radiator fan
- Full tank reach about 400KM 100% in KL
- top speed still can reach 210 kmh

No major problem for a 10 year old car. I am happy with it

Preve failed because proton let it die. Only did a very minor update after 5-6 years.
