Dear all,

Lately, there is a surge of feedbacks, mostly from new Bestari owners, regarding the poor state of their newly delivered car. We heard all sort of issues that seems to be repeated.
There's also rumour on how the PDI for these cars were not done accordingly.

Therefore, the objective of this list is to compile the issues/warranty claims your faced.

The list will look like this.
1. Issue/Warranty Claim - (1)owner1, (2)owner2, (3)owner3, (n)owner n.

Here is the 'template' with a few identified issues/ warranty claims.
your cooperation to feed your feedback is much much appreciated.
And please feel free to expand it dear owners.

I'm sure if Nasim people, particularly from after sales service (the 2nd PDI people will surely hate to see this!), have a look at this list and think positively, they might be able to create some sort of task force / accelerated action points to quickly tackle complaint/claims on items in the list in appropriate manners, as it is a common issues/warranty claims with new Bestari.

Lastly, allow me to congratulate you, dear contributors for your invaluable feedback.

Darylding, previously (before they overhauled the engine) with RM75, I can go up to 550km (City driving). But now, it seems like the km are less than that. I just got my car (less than a week), still gauging the fuel consumption, but it seems like the car "drink" alot of petrol now compared to the last time. Maybe it's because I have problem with the gear. My gearbox change at High-rev. Sometimes, when the RPM meter reached 3.5 or 4, then only the gear changed. At the moment as I don't have time to go to BB Glenmarie to re-set the gearbox, I prefer to use the "manual" gear. More pickup and less "roaring".

By the way, for the rusted brake disc, I noticed it on the 1st day I received the car. My bf said, for a new car, there should not be any corroded or rusted metal. They re-painted it after we made our 1st complaint.

Hahaha... Ye la joe!! the "oooo-ing" sound or should I say the "hissing" sound coming from the aircond...hehehe... very scary indeed... . Eh, by the way, sometimes my brake pedal and my steering wheel also got sound la... I hate all those sounds - Like they didn't put any lubricant on those parts (...but I dont know la whether they CAN put oil at those parts or not...hehehe)
