Mahindra Scorpio [2009-2014] User Reviews

Sir,

I had complainted on 4/7/08 regarding the audometer.  subsequent to the complaint your person inspected during the week itself.  but no action has been taken till date to rectify the complaint as the meter turns to '0' after 9999.  the vehicle has covered nearly 50000 Kms.  We do not expect such a type of action from a reputed company like you.  Kindly do the needful at the earliest to replace the meter or rectifying the defects.

Buying Scorpio to me was a bad deal in terms of buying a SUV.The only matter of relief is its lesser cost compared to the other SUVs. The interriors are pathetic and the height of the vehicle at times gives a kind of discomfort in your 'bowels'. There is a constant rattling sound from the interiors, the doors and side mirrors and the fittings of the doors and the Trims look really poor.

   I have taken a Scorpio LX from Streling, Gurgaon. They have a poor accosseroies deptt there with really ill-trained guys for doing the fittings. While doing the fittings they have spoilt the interiors of my car and there are several irritating sounds from the door, the speakers and the mirror.

On the top of this their service center has a pathetic service( as compared to the ones of Maruti, since I had been a Maruti customer for last 4 years) and customer care is extremely sloppy. The puch line 'with you Hamesha' is a misnomer, you wouldnt get a proper response for days.

thnx

Final Words GEAR, HORN and NOISE problem.

Areas of improvement GAER BOX.

I own Mahindra Scorpio LX BS4 model Jan2012, and I took my Vehicle for 1st Service on 24-02-2012 at United Service station at Allahabad at 0930hrs. Following were the complaints to be Rectified (1)-Problem in shifting 1st Gear, (2)-Horns not working simultaneously,(3)-Noises from loose nut bolts & OTHERS. Then I took the delivery of vehicle after paying the bill and started to drive it and found that the Problem in Shifting 1st Gear is not cured.

  Again I returned to Service Station and told them that the problem still persists and please repair it, Then only a person inspected my vehicle and found that there is a problem in GEAR BOX, and he had to take the whole gear box down and will take 2 days to repair. I was astonished to hear that as my SCORPIO IS NEW and was bought on 16 JAN 2012. I requested them to repair/replace my Vehicle to which they said that they will book the vehicle for repair and will take time to repair.

 Ultimately with broken heart as my Scorpio is only 37days old and it"s GEAR BOX has to be replaced, what will happen in future, I booked my vehicle for Repair on 1st MAR 2012 that time only.

     Therefore, I request you to kindly look in to my matter and ensure that in future Vehicles are inspected and problems are Rectified at United Service station at Allahabad, because neither of my 3 problems were cured.

There is still GEAR, HORN and NOISE problem in my vehicle.

LOOK(1)-Problem in shifting 1st Gear, (2)-Horns not working simultaneously,(3)-Noises from loose nut bol

the vehicle , when compared toinnova, it has poor styling, no aerodynamics, poor safety ,less spacious and very bad interiors.

the tires are big which is very good for off road drive. the price is attractive and cheaper than innova. the customer service in all dealership should be improved. but over all, igve it 3 / 5.

 

rocking styleVery bad performance ,bad interiors.

I really appreciate Mahindra taking the initiative to introduce the Micro Hybrid Technology in the New 2009 Mighty Muscular Scorpio.

I instantly felt in love with Scorpio's amazing Muscular looks. But I was not even aware that the New Scorpio has the Micro hybrid Technology.

Here is how the Micro hybrid Technology Works:
1. Automatic Switch off of the engine when the engine idles for a preset amount of time.
2. Automatic switch on of the engine the moment the clutch is pressed again.
3. This automatic on-off feature helps save fuel to a large extent.

So not only does the Micro Hybrid Technology help in conservation of the environment but it makes Scorpio an economical vehicle by helping you save on fuel.

Great feature for a great vehicle

Final Words

All the above comes at a big cost, in the later stage

Areas of improvement  

engineering design : Clutch, cooling system components, power window, service station personells 

Bad experiences  

had a major expense just within 2years of purchase. the whole CLUTCH SET ASSEMBLY had to be replaced. costed me around Rs. 35000

the POWER WINDOW problems were in existence since the inception of my ownership of the vehicle. got the whole assembly replaced, a couple of times, during the warranty period, and got them replaced for two of my doors just about now, for 3000 and odd an each. Though they have not functioned smoothly, ever.

the most recent setback... a cooling system rubber pipe broke and my engine had a heat-up problem. since the nearest service station was atleast 250kms away, i had to keep on driving till the pipe got replaced. very soon after about 150kms, there was yet another casualty in the same cooling system, and now another pipe leakage occured. again the engine was in dangerous heating phase and had to keep driving for the next service station. ultimately, i had to get the WHOLE ENGINE OVERHAULED which costed me a whopping 1,00,000

... all these within a meager riding use of 60000kms

look, comfort, versatility in usepoor quality parts used in most critical areas of functioning

Super amazing car.

We have mahindra cl500 mdi jeep, bolero camper pick up,and a 3 wheeler champain.My great grand father is having WILLYS JEEP USA. MAHAINDRA products are very valuable in my experience .Iam the fourth generation to use Mahindra vehicle .I am planning to buy a new SCORPIO . In  my opinion the cladding given to the door has a waves can seen back side and front side ,it can rettfive. and another comment is to fix the  steppeny tyre to the back door .

I purchased my Scorpio in 1995 almost immediately after the lauch. I think I made a good choice. It is great car and has tremendous power and road stability. It  get very good respect on road.

The after sale service is not good. One has to live with the problems due to non avilability of spares when they are required.

Great Power, stability and road gripBad dealear, no availability of spare parts, heavy clutch
