Suman Patra filed this complaint against Yamaha Motor on Jan 20, 2018

Sir,
With utmost sadness and disgust I Suman Patra on behalf of my father Mr.Nityananda Patra wants to state that I was cheated and now I regret why I bought a Yamaha Product. I bought Fzsfi v*.* on **th June and suddenly after a period of time the bike stopped in the middle of the road(**TH JULY) . My father called the Dealership Shreya Automobiles (Bankura,West Bengal) and they sent some guys and said battery was down and suggested my father to drive the bike regularly for around **-** kms, though it sounded funny. Now after buying a bike of Rs *,**,*** I have to drive the bike for **kms regularly wasting petrol. On the *nd time the same problem recurred in the middle of a highway and being a **yr aged my father had to push the bike and bring it back to the dealership, same remedy was told. On the *RD time the story was a little bit different, though same problem they kept the bike for *days and said the Plug was getting loose due to jerking and rest assured us the problem will not happen again. Again on the *TH time the same problem and it was on **TH October and I called your customer care helpline and they took a complaint (IC-*****-S*H*) and assured me that we will take strict action from our side if the problem occurs again. The most disheartening reply from your side was your Technical Advisor gave me a call and said is everything fine, I said yeah the Dealer changed the Battery and also the Battery Regulator and even they said the same problem would occur again as the time period of recurring the same problem is of ** days from the date it is solved. Now, your Technical Advisor said I had a talk and I cannot come at this point of time due to festive season Diwali. From my side when I called your customer care helpline they said in a harsh manner that Please don’t call us again and again and we are keeping your problem under observation period and assured me that the same problem would not occur again. Finally the complaint closure mail IYM:******* came to me on **rd October that necessary actions have been taken to meet your concerns. Now, after completing the second service on the *st week of this month the same problem occurred as of **ND November and finally I decided that I won’t be handing over my bike to the dealership service guys as according to my point of view they are simply unskilled and they have been given * chances. I want a new Bike of same model as I won’t be keeping a defective piece or whatsoever.
Did Yamaha failed to provide me satisfactory service?
Did the company cheat me?
Is the company not liable to replace the defective model and provide me with a new one?
These questions came to my mind and I finally took a step forward to take the issue to Consumer Forum.
Now, on my part I kept Yamaha informed but they failed to resolve my problem, now I am taking this issue to Consumer Forum for proper solution. I have been cheated and I will never suggest any people to buy a Yamaha product. Kindly, follow-up with me regarding the same issue as I am taking this issue to Higher Authorities and I have brought this Issue to your notice. I will solve all the disputes there only and take strict action against the dealer Shreya Automobiles and Yamaha . Being a law student I know my rights and how to protect those. I am attaching a supporting proof of purchase document.

Update- As of **th they are changing the wiring of the bike. I am sure it is a defective Model that they sold to me. My father has to deal with such mental agony and harassment because of this negligence he has to cancel all his important work and if there is emergency any time and if the bike don't start who will take the responsibility?

Finally on **th I was handed over the bike, suggested by the dealer to install a kick starter by paying Rs *,*** extra. Even the dealer gave no assurance that the problem won't repeat again on the ground that it's an electronic product. The bike is sold in the market as a Fuel Injected model. Now, I think my father will have to push the bike each and every time it stops. Even if there is any emergency and the bike stops who will be responsible for that? If the company thinks it won't happen again for the *th time give me in writing.



As of **th after handing over the bike on **th November the same problem occurred and the bike stopped again. I had to put the bike on double stand and in *rd gear the rear tyre was rotated to start the bike. I want a satisfactory and stern action to be taken and in the meantime I am finally approaching Consumer Forum.

On *th January I had a conversation with one of the representative of Yamaha motors saying that the problem won't repeat again and as of January **th the same problem recurred for the *th time.The representative over the phone assured me that the problem won't repeat again and stern action will be taken by Yamaha against the Dealer Shreya Automobiles. Finally I think I have given the maximum chance to Yamaha for solving my problem which they failed at their end.
