Fiat Linea Vs Honda City

Thanks Vinayak, I understand the cause and appreciate it too. Any such effort is always welcome. Anyways just for information , the CEO of Fiat India is personally known to me. His team & Tata Business Team are at their lifetime best this time. We are not going to have any problems here-on. Unlike GMs & other Car cos, FIAT is doing well globally and is even in talks to acquire some groups. I am sure we are in safe hands. Now w.r.t your blog, certainly I would love to contribute wherever I am asked to.

Thanks & Good Luck Rajnish Sharma

Thanks Pankaj ( Our Moderator ),by acknowledging my views, I knew it since I also operate fast moving blogs but in some other field and hence knew the ground e-rules.

@ Pankaj M really sorry i didnt read the terms bforee posting it.. but just to tell u i have to personal motive in advt myblog.. i was just thinking to create a group of FIAT owners so as to escape our fear of the brand.

@Rajnish... Thankx a lot for apperciating my views and sharing a little piece of info. I wud just like to tell u one thing.. pls dont take it oterwise bro... Since u personally know the FIAT's CEO and TATA team ur assured of the service and feel safe and comfortable about it. But many Linea owners like me have opted for this car with their fingures crossed we arent aware of nething and talking about the dealrship exp personaly m not satisfied as still i havent recieved the Registration no.. Code Card.. Body Cover.. Spare headlights lamps..which is by default promised by the dealer.

And the brands image is also continuously there to haunt us. My efforts of creating a group and make it an official 1 is to escape all these fears and make FIAT ownership a Prestigious one unlike the fame it shares in the market today where FIAT owners are look down upon.

I m sure u cud understand my view and i hope for ur support in this initiative. From the blog i just want to create a list of interested owners and then start talks with FIAT so as to improve our ownership exp and above al mouth publicity is best in any business

And on a lighter note incase me or ne other Linea onwers  face ne problems i m presuming u and ur friend in FIAT are awlays there to help

Thankx

regards Vinayak

Dear Vinayak, I suggest that we could close this discussion, since we may agree to disagree.

My views on this subject are as  follows:

1] Establishing brand, promoting it , protecting it, making it a household name , improving the product resale value, etc etc - all these are within the domain of the organisation and not the customer. - Its not our job. Lets just leave to them. If they are successful, their stakeholders are happy, if they are not, well only they are at fault and not the customer.

2] Customer is an important stakeholder to some extent since he invests at least in One Unit from the organisation. In that respect, he expects a value for money, a happy experience, nice service & spare support, a smooth drive, low operating cost, etc etc. Well, the pre-sales and post sales team are already employed by the organsation to good care of the customer.Customer has absolutely no role to play in this.

3] I don't assume it as my personal responsibility - moral or whatever in any regard or I feel its to anybody else.

On a lighter side, If you travel in Haryana Roadways buses, we find an interesting thing written on it in the front. Sorry its is in Hindi , let me try , since its very relevant in the context :-

1] Ek Do Teen Seato par sona mana hai

2] Yatri apne samaan ka swayam jimmedar hai.

Kindly don't be so much apprehensive, be in touch with your dealer. You can even talk to the Tata/Fiat teams in your area.

Sorry for being so long, Here-on I shall suggest to you and the Moderator that we can discuss Product related informatory things only - for this thread exists. I may not be able to respond more on this subject though other queries are most welcome and forever.

Regards Rajnish

ohk sir... Point taken...

now lets talk on some product related query...

when i switch my car from 2nd to third gear i experince a jerk... so do all the owners feel the same or is it some fault..

2nd query is that i found the AC not very effective... i m comparing the AC with the perivous car that i owned which was Honda City.

and can neone tell me more about the CODE CARD that we get with the car...what exactly is it...??

Dear Vinayak,

query 1, might be a clutch issue, release it smoothly. I found clutch and brakes very sensitive. Normally a driving style issue. Ask your dealer rep. to check your car.

Query 2 , I am not so sure, AC is quite effective in my case. Always prefer Full Auto Mode.

Query 3 , Details of Code are available in the booklet that you would have got alongwith the vehicle, It has been explained pictorally over there. As per me, its is one of the Electronic security measure.

Regards Rajnish

this is what i own... my priced Pocession... Admiration Guranteed...

i hope the pics in the next one is ok...???

cant we upload pics in this froum...

Upload the photos in CW Album & give reference to it here in the thread/post.  You can also insert the photo here by copying therefrom the image location & inserting it through the tool Ínsert/Edit Image' (tree/green icon - 5th from right).

i did that only.. and image was displaying.. but i guess it has been deleted now

I deleted the post because it did not contain the photos - I checked twice before doing that.

It wasn't displayed, as you haven't uploaded the photos in the CW Album.  Inserting the photos from your PC will not be visible to others (to you it will).
