Mahindra Quanto Maintenance Cost

Myself Tushar Patel from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. I had purchased Mahindra Quanto model C-8vehicle in 23-OCT-2012, from "Punjab Automobiles (India) Private Limited". I have always given this car for service on regular basis. Before that, I had a Maruti Wagon R and used till 4 yrs and sold it. So, no chance about my driving skills. In Nov-2014, I had an issue with the car and gave to Punjab Automobiles and they said having issue in engine???? Wow, I think all car segments having an Indicator alert before when any issue arises in the engine but this car never and we had no choice at that time. I had also asked for the warranty, but it's already expired and I asked service manager to repair engine and solve all issues and then ask for warranty for 2 yrs for engine but at that time they said why do you want to extend, after repairing the engine, we will give 6 months warranty. After 6 months, you can extend it, no need for now. Now what happens, my car also have an issue like water leakage issue from the radiator. This issue we already faced when the engine had an issue. So I asked for warranty before 6 months completion so now they are not agreed to give extended warranty. So now I am afraid for this car again. To avoid confusion, I was thinking to show this car to the different service center for a better solution. So for diagnosis, I binged my car to "Sheetal Motors" at 25 July 2015 and they said in your car have a radiator issue, you have to change it. But I have already changed the radiator on 19-Jan-2014 but again the same issue. So I again went to Punjab Automobiles and those guys said, the car radiator is okay but heating coils have an issue, so you need to change that and charges will be around 12,000 INR. Wow! what rubbish things are going on???? What I have to do??? Who is correct, Sheetal Motors or Punjab Automobiles??? There are only 2 service centers in my city. So I am really confused about it. Seriously this car gave me too much headache, nobody answers to me even when I ask customer care but never get any single reply.  So please do not buy Mahindra's car. You can see other user's review as well and then decide.

This car seemed very exciting when it was launched and I purchased in that hype but unfortunately the dealers very poor after sales services have forced me to change my opinion not only for this car but for all Mahindra variants. What I have learnt in last 22 months is that even a good product can be failed by bad after sales services. I purchased Quanto from Aditya Motors, Cuttack and have to visit again and again for same problems. They are simply unable to solve small problems and we have to face the harassment of visiting all the time. I think the company has not got any type of control over the dealers as even after complaining many times the same problem occurs. Also recently when a part was damaged I requested the service manager for warranty claim he simply denied without satisfying me why this warranty cannot be entertained and was not willing to give a warranty refusal letter. The service people in Mahindra lack training on how to deal with the customers and details about the product and warranty coverage. 

Look and Style: I recently brought C8 Quanto and am very satisfied with its performance. The car looks fairly good. A tall, compact reasonably priced SUV. Comfort: The front two seats are very comfortable. Initially I found it difficult to adjust as i was driving a much small car. But soon after getting acustomed to seeing the road from such a height, i am finding it more comfortable than other cars, like, WagonR, Alto, Swift etc. Pickup: The engine is decently powerful and gets smoother on warming. Nice pickup, no problems at all. Mileage: Giving about 18 km/l as its new. Expect it to do better after few services and brake-in. Best Features: Micro-Hybrid works well. Mahindra has done a good work on the interiors keeping in mind small things that one can think of. Needs to improve: Should provide floor matts and seat covers at least for the top model. Overall Experience: I am finding it a wonderful SUV which easily accomodates my family. Overall a good buy.

I really don't understand, Why do we even buy any other car in the market when we have this car, good Mileage, wonderful pick up, and worth for money. Forget to buy any other car,, even you are fond of any other types of car... just forget them and you must buy this car.  Even somebody says any rumour i personally recommend this car and don't bother about anybody Go and buy this car..you will never ever regret. My name is Neeraj Pareek, and even the experience with the mahindra service with KS motors in Jaipur is wonderful Mr. Pradeep and Chetan are best people i have ever seen in Jhotwara workshop.. When you go there they treat you like you are in a 7 start hotel and all the desired tasks are done in min with perfection. Wonderful experience

The Car looks stylish and with good interior, good space and sitting In the matter of Comfort, this is the best SUV , feel the comfort on any road may be jerk or highway the comfort is great. We travelled full pack with 7, the pickup is amazing and thanks to Mahindra for these car without first servicing on the city road I am getting 16 with A/c and hight way 20 . C8 version is great compared to C2-C6  . for this price threre is no comparable. My overall experience is to recommend this car , if you are looking for a SUV 7 seater, pickup , comfort and Mileages, there is no other car in the market to campare with Quanto

People do comment about the looks that it looks chopped... but i personally find my car really cute with the rear being soo cute..! just like a baby elephant... now for performance pickup is awsome..!! for city roads.. pickup is more than desired..! i am getting a mileage of 11-12 in city not even the first service done :) ... MICRO HYBRID tech in the car is awesomme... perfect for city.. the only negetive thing is the body roll.. taking a turn at 40 kmph makes the car tilt.. overall the QUANTO is best for a family and those people like me whose pockets dont allow for XUV's CRV 's and fortuner 's.. QUANTO GIVES A FULL SUV FEEL FROM THE INSIDE BUT IS COMPACT FROM THE OUTSIDE HENCE EASES THE CITY TRAVELLING... I FALL IN LOVE WITH MY CAR ALL OVER AGAIN EACH TIME I SIT IN IT... :) I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS CAR OVER OTHER SEDANS OR EVEN HATCHBACKS ANYDAY...!!!!
