Clucth and unstability issue in Verna

Clucth and unstability issue in Verna

Dear all, I am a owner of Verna disel model SX(O) 2103 August model, I bought this vehicle considering the features it offer and the brand name, however I am using a car in Delhi NCR city conditions and found that the car is automatically heavily acceralated due to high torque and as a result you need to control the vehicle by using clutch and brake pedal most of the time in peak hours, this resulted in completely damaging the clutch plates of my vehicle just after 15000 kms of running, on complaining the issue with Safdarjang Hyundai, they tried to repair the same, within few kms of running the issue again crop up with clutch becoming excessively hard and creating problem in gear shifting, finally I have to shell Rs 15000 for replecement of clutch plates with no guarantee and warranty as how much this will last as Hyundai consider wear and tear of clutch plate as consumables and not covered under any warranty. Looking into the driving conditions of Delhi-NCR, I suspect that I may need to do this again after another 10-15000 kms and it will be a never ending story till I own this car. Ride quality & handling depends on the actual usage of vehicle, I found that the road grip of tyres are not at all good and vehicle started shaking at a speed of just 90-100 kms/hour, it is near to impossible to drive the vehicle in that speed range as you tend to loose the control of vehicle. On the other hand, I also own grand i10 petrol which is very smooth and stable at 100 kms/hr speed in city roads. Final words - If you are intended to drive on a highways, which is relatively congestion free, this is a good and comfortable vehicle, but if your intention is to drive in city conditions on a daily basis, think twice before purchasing this high cost car, as Hyundai is not cheaper in comparison to other contemporary manufaturers who deliver the same or better vehicle at cheaper rates, consider buying Volkswagon Vento or Honda City diesel.
