            Poor quality tyres

            <p><strong>Hello,&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>This is Gaurav Sehgal from New Delhi. I bought Mahindra xuv -500 w-4 model in october 2014 in two days i faced a complaint for alignment, wheels were not balanced , window glass of driver seat was making noise, AC was making a strange noise. I had sent it back to the showroom and they brought &nbsp;it back next day . &nbsp;Then &nbsp;before first service the same problems were there . Now 7500 kms i saw rubber sole from tyres started to fall off.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Workshop is around 55 kms away from my house at mathura road ,i went there twice, in delhi traffic it took me 4 hrs to go there and then to come back .Yesterday a boy from the workshop took the car and brought it back with a report that JK tyres has rejected your request to change their scrap tyres.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Now i am talking to mahindra people to whom i gave the money around 13 lakh. I will get their report on monday.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong><br/></strong></p> <p><strong>Then there will be a third step on tuesday which for sure i need to take because i can see that they all have cheated me and they going to blame me for the scrap which they gave me.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong><br/></strong></p> <p><strong>The consumer court, Social media, international news channels , magazines.</strong></p> <p><strong>I'll do whatever i can to get my money back or else they replace their scrap tyres.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Yes i accept it was my fault that i went for mahindra instead of honda / maruti and other good makes. I am giving around 16000 per month as emi of the. Car . So the car value for me will be around 14 lakh or more &nbsp;by the end of the last installment .&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>THIS IS THE WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE GOING TO &nbsp;MAHINDRA ( THE SCRAP MAKERS)</strong></p>Space and looksHead rest , weired noise of window glass, poor quality of tyres,chroming, bumper gaurd
