Experience was so good that I wanted to upgrade to Nexon XZ+ but my ASS Advisor strictly advised me to stay away from AMT as he was certain about the failure after 3 years when EW also don't cover gearbox.
Anyway eventually I bought the City CVT for peace of mind.
Yes fact is AMTs are unreliable in long run and OEMs don't want to agree and shy away from their responsibilities.
Anyway DM me if it is in Bangalore and let me see if something can be worked out. |
Your comment gave me a a shudder as soon as I read it. Are you sure the extended warranty won't cover the said parts? I was at my Tata dealership in Agra yesterday, and this is what they gave me (image below).
I think the text isn't very legible after uploading.
Here is a transcript :
