  • Lack of spare parts in the market

    8 years ago


    Sayyed Abid

    Respected sir/madam,


    it is with great dissapointment that i am writing to you that after buying a mahindra gusto and completing a year i fail to find spare parts of the bike in the local market. My mahindra gusto's spark plug develeoped a snag and had to be replaced and searching for a mahindra spark plug has been a futile case. Every vendor at grant road and even the authorised service center has failed to provide me a genuine spark plug. Gusto owners have no choice left but to opt for bajaj pulsars spark plug as they are the most similiar and in this case the performance suffers and my vehicle lacks smooth acceleration and pickup. It has been a sheer dissapointment and lack of after sales service on your part. If the situation does not improves consumers might shift back to other vehicles. Sayyed abid hussain9324xxxxxx mumbai.

    Final words purchased mahendra gusto vx 15 days back as advertised mileage is 63kmpl but in fact mileage is only 30 kms after 1st free service started giving mileage of 20 kmpl. Nobody is bothered even after repetitive request to the show room.

  • Fooled by mahindra two wheelers!

    8 years ago


    Gauri

    We had asked for a brand new latest mahindra gusto.


    The following is what we got on 2nd feb 2016 :


    - vehicle manufactured in november 2014.


    - Seat height adjuster missing.


    - Incorrect light connections.


    - Wire cut near front tyre.


    - Oil leakage.


    - Petrol leakage.


    - Engine over-heating.


    - Handle lock issue.


    - Handle jam during driving of vehicle.


    - Old tyre.


    - Noise in front panel.


    - Gusto with no mahindra logo.


    - Faulty mirrors.


    - No instruction sticker below the handle.


    - Matt black color faint.


    - Old buttons with no indication labels on it.


    - Old side stand.


    - The hook cover below the seat not fitted.


    - Tool kit missing.


    - First-aid kit missing.


    - Old silencer with fade color and lots of stains.


    - No pdi done.


    - Mahindra two wheelers people will not help you at all.


    - Nor replace youe vehicle.


    - When asked for replacement they will teach you the law in the manual saying " manual states the vehicle will be repaired not replaced ".


    But, i guess they have not gone through the complete manual where it states :


    1. Mahindra two wheelers gives the following warranty in respect of all new mahindra gusto manufactured at their works.


    2. The vehicle is sold after pre-delivery inspection.


    3. The vehicle is sold only after no defects are found during the pdi.


    No pdi done for my vehicle, no new vehicle sold to me !!!!


    we are thinking to file a case in consumer court again this to get justice!!!!!

    pros

    nothing to like

    cons

    horrible mahindra two wheelers

  • Major issue is servicing and availability of spare parts

    3 years ago


    Bsb

    I bought it in 2015 and in the long drive it gave 50 km/l recently. But its give only 25 km/l due to servicing problems value for money. It's running smooth and good. All the features are good but the servicing terrible. The dealer didn't concentrate on service issues. If the servicing time to time done good then this scooter does not get trouble. I have been facing many problems due to bad servicing.

  • Mahindra gusto a scooter for perfectionist...

    6 years ago


    Syed Hussain

    1. Buying was a great experience as the manager very polite.2. This is truly hardcore scooter for Indian road.3. Looks wise this isn't that great looking bike, but performance wise not scooter can even come close matching in this segment category.4. Servicing was little hard for me because i have to travel 8km away from my home to reach the authorised service centre, maintenance is great nothing much to worry.5. Solid engine with great performance and very comfortable ride quality and amazing thurst. Cons, very few service centres available and the mechanics are not even properly trained on most of things they need to take help from companies engineer who at times visit service centres.

    I urge all the Mahindra Gusto owner not to get this scooter service outside because I am sure 90% don't even know a bit about yourself his engine and neither understand the issues where it's coming from.

  • Ownership review after 5000 kms plus a road trip from mumbai to lonavala

    7 years ago


    Mukul Deshmukh

    Pros:

    1) 12-inch tubeless tyres (both front and rear)

    2) 6-liter fuel tank

    3) best features:

    seat adjustment

    find me lamps

    remote flip key

    guide lamps

    telescopic front suspension

    quick storage compartment near the speed console

    front kick

    aluminium engine casing (cools down very fast compared to others)

    4) top speed is 80kmph (but i managed to hit 85-90kmph, probably i was on a slope :p)

    5) the scooter is a bit heavy so does not vibrate at such high speeds and even when the other vehicles overtake is stays steady.

    Cons:

    1) weight of the scooter is 120kg (might be difficult for some people to handle)

    2) the body is made of fibre and not a metal body

    3) mahindra is a new brand in the 2-wheeler market, so there might be some trust issues but, i did not find any such.

    I had taken the scooter from mumbai to lonavala and did not find any place to complain. Distance is around 136km. And i returned on the same day.

  • Lack of spare parts in the market

    8 years ago


    Sayyed Abid

    Respected sir/madam,


    it is with great dissapointment that i am writing to you that after buying a mahindra gusto and completing a year i fail to find spare parts of the bike in the local market. My mahindra gusto's spark plug develeoped a snag and had to be replaced and searching for a mahindra spark plug has been a futile case. Every vendor at grant road and even the authorised service center has failed to provide me a genuine spark plug. Gusto owners have no choice left but to opt for bajaj pulsars spark plug as they are the most similiar and in this case the performance suffers and my vehicle lacks smooth acceleration and pickup. It has been a sheer dissapointment and lack of after sales service on your part. If the situation does not improves consumers might shift back to other vehicles. Sayyed abid hussain9324xxxxxx mumbai.

  • Fooled by mahindra two wheelers!

    8 years ago


    Gauri

    We had asked for a brand new latest mahindra gusto.


    The following is what we got on 2nd feb 2016 :


    - vehicle manufactured in november 2014.


    - Seat height adjuster missing.


    - Incorrect light connections.


    - Wire cut near front tyre.


    - Oil leakage.


    - Petrol leakage.


    - Engine over-heating.


    - Handle lock issue.


    - Handle jam during driving of vehicle.


    - Old tyre.


    - Noise in front panel.


    - Gusto with no mahindra logo.


    - Faulty mirrors.


    - No instruction sticker below the handle.


    - Matt black color faint.


    - Old buttons with no indication labels on it.


    - Old side stand.


    - The hook cover below the seat not fitted.


    - Tool kit missing.


    - First-aid kit missing.


    - Old silencer with fade color and lots of stains.


    - No pdi done.


    - Mahindra two wheelers people will not help you at all.


    - Nor replace youe vehicle.


    - When asked for replacement they will teach you the law in the manual saying " manual states the vehicle will be repaired not replaced ".


    But, i guess they have not gone through the complete manual where it states :


    1. Mahindra two wheelers gives the following warranty in respect of all new mahindra gusto manufactured at their works.


    2. The vehicle is sold after pre-delivery inspection.


    3. The vehicle is sold only after no defects are found during the pdi.


    No pdi done for my vehicle, no new vehicle sold to me !!!!


    we are thinking to file a case in consumer court again this to get justice!!!!!

    pros

    nothing to like

  • Major issue is servicing and availability of spare parts

    3 years ago


    Bsb

    I bought it in 2015 and in the long drive it gave 50 km/l recently. But its give only 25 km/l due to servicing problems value for money. It's running smooth and good. All the features are good but the servicing terrible. The dealer didn't concentrate on service issues. If the servicing time to time done good then this scooter does not get trouble. I have been facing many problems due to bad servicing.

    Syed Hussain

    1. Buying was a great experience as the manager very polite.2. This is truly hardcore scooter for Indian road.3. Looks wise this isn't that great looking bike, but performance wise not scooter can even come close matching in this segment category.4. Servicing was little hard for me because i have to travel 8km away from my home to reach the authorised service centre, maintenance is great nothing much to worry.5. Solid engine with great performance and very comfortable ride quality and amazing thurst. Cons, very few service centres available and the mechanics are not even properly trained on most of things they need to take help from companies engineer who at times visit service centres.

  • Ownership review after 5000 kms plus a road trip from mumbai to lonavala

    7 years ago


    Mukul Deshmukh

    Pros:

    1) 12-inch tubeless tyres (both front and rear)

    2) 6-liter fuel tank

    3) best features:

    seat adjustment

    find me lamps

    remote flip key

    guide lamps

    telescopic front suspension

    quick storage compartment near the speed console

    front kick

    aluminium engine casing (cools down very fast compared to others)

    4) top speed is 80kmph (but i managed to hit 85-90kmph, probably i was on a slope :p)

    5) the scooter is a bit heavy so does not vibrate at such high speeds and even when the other vehicles overtake is stays steady.

    Cons:

    1) weight of the scooter is 120kg (might be difficult for some people to handle)

    2) the body is made of fibre and not a metal body

    3) mahindra is a new brand in the 2-wheeler market, so there might be some trust issues but, i did not find any such.

    I had taken the scooter from mumbai to lonavala and did not find any place to complain. Distance is around 136km. And i returned on the same day.
