High Maintenance - Part failures very high

My Scoprio 2.6 LX is now 8 year old. Had maintenance issue from first week (Pass. side door could not be opened because of the door cladding operlap). had to send vehicle 2-3 times to workshop in first 2 months. I was smart enough to buy extend warranty (2+2yrs) also because they had to change lots of parts in the original waranty period. In 4 years they must have changed parts worth 1.5 Lakhs though car spend significant time at workshop & I spend for other service charges , pretty much every thing like transmission to Steering column to Starting motor. I just gave car for 75K km service & got a estimate of around 1.5 lakhs. Average cost to maintain this car is Rs. 50K/yr though I use only 1K/month.

Ever wonder why no Cab cos use Mahindra vehicles? XYLO is 40% cheaper than Innova & Scorpio 30% cheaper still they go for Innova? 

Consumers like us go for Aggressive looks & Intial cost without realizing that they end-up paying much more in long run, in addition to time & hassle at the workshop.

If import duties are brought at par with Excise duties & Diesel at par with Petrol, Indian Car cos will immediately shut-down.

Good road presence, Value for Money for Initial costHigh Maintenance, Lot of space but poor utilization
