I own Maruti Versa but now I fell like changing the car as soon as possible.

I don't find this car upto the mark of Maruti family. The features and performance which generally Maruti car has is absent in this car. Thinking it a member of Maruti I thought this car would be really good but I am very much disappointed.

The moment I started my car and vhroooooooom a sound came from somewhere. The gears also started making noise after some time. Also I started confronting problems while breaking and clutching. AC was also not working well when loaded to full capacity.

In my case all the things went wrong with my versa. Also as of now so many varied models with different designs are available that I find my versa just a big box.

Over all I found it as not so good car as per expectation.

I took a new Versa DX2 from the showroom just last week, but there is a problem in the clutch and the engine also makes a lot of screeching noise whenever I push the accelerator.

I did not notice there is a dent in the side, but noticed only next day.

Dealer has given us faulty vehicle and not willing to accept that problem is there in the vehicle. I am really fond of Versa 8 seater, but this seems to be a peculiar problem, as it is a defective piece.

I am sure dealer will replace it because I go to court if this defective Versa is not repaired or replaced.

I am very confident that there is no problem with the Versa as my close relative also has Versa and I have driven his Versa so many times.
