    Latest problem!

    I parked into an incline today. The car creaked!

    A little torsional stress and the car creaked. Sounds like a 10 year old car...

    Same when you jack it up. The body emits tick... tick... tick... noises.

    They have clearly demonstrated a lack of quality that is just totally unacceptable.

    In a few days they will decide if they will replace/refund or not.

    Meanwhile I'll be sharpening my axe. Pictures tomorrow.
    Yon naman pala... they are willing to fix and replace it. If the problem persists - then that is the time that you call it a "lemon".

    READ your vehicle's warranty coverage before blowing this out of proportion. Just imagine how much vehicles would cost if the manufacturers will replace it instantly on the slightest defect.

    Nag-park lang ako dun sa Goldilocks sa bldg ni Alvid. Konting pa-rampa lang, nag-creak na!

    That's easy to say when it's not your money...

    a nice little "gentle persuasion" if things get out of hand might help... like say, a nice demand letter from a lawyer

    damn, personally if i were you, i won't settle for anything less than HCPI buying back the car at full price!

    ...or raise hell trying.

    if that's my car, i can live with the out of camber or out of alignment and out of center steering wheel, these can easily be adjusted and corrected. it happens to all cars anyway. but the leaks, grabe na yun. if its coming from a misaligned door, mahirap ng ayusin yun. i would definitely demand for a refund or replacement.

    paanong creaking sound, when going on an incline? or when stopping on an incline? do you notice the sound when going up slowly on a bridge?

    When chassis flex is induced.

    There's no creaking when you drive up straight into a ramp because the chassis doesn't twist.

    But when only one tire goes up first on a ramp, the chassis will twist and it will creak.

    When you jack up one tire this also induces flex. It also creaks.

    that's so unprofessional of them, did you remind them that you started noticing those glitches just two weeks after you picked-up your Brand new City!!! stress on Brand new!
