High maintenance and no peace of mind

I bought a Chevrolet Spark on 3rd December, and today, it completed 6 painful months with me. I have following problems with the car:

1. AC of spark gives frequent problems. Comfortable inside and silent cabin features of Spark get nullified as one has to drive with windows rolled down during midday, when the AC is as good as non existent.

2. Service/Spare part prices are exorbitant when compared to Maruti/Hyundai vehicles of similar price range. Irrespective of what is shown on website, anything not mentioned there costs a fortune. For example, pair of fog lamps with fitting costs Rs. 4500. AC Condenser costs 6000. A simple wheel alignment and balancing job will set you off by 1000 rupees. I found out all this after a very minor accident, a nudge with car ahead at speed of about 10 kmph.

3. I've driven the car for just 7200 km, but have already visited workshop 5 times for various problems in 6 months. GM believes in selling and forgetting. After sales is practically non existent, and the company is slow to do any repairs under warranty. So you will be expected to leave car with them for days for any minor repair.

4. Spark inherits the poor anti rusting protection from Matiz. Exhaust pipe has already started rusting in my 6 month old car, and I've observed rust in sharp under body parts. It is only a matter of time that the body paint will start bubbling.

5. I pressed GM workshop (Regent Automobiles, Mathura Road) to fix various glitches (headlight bulb fusing, AC not working, central clock getting reset frequently), but was politely reminded that I was expecting too much from their lowest end car.

6. Dashboard is making weird noises when accelerating for last 15 days. And any such stuff is exclusively mentioned not to be covered by warranty. So have no choice but to bear these noises.

I've spent 4 Lakhs of my hard earned cash on Spark LT model, and there are simply no buyers at even 3 lakhs, just 6 months after the purchase.
