contd... 7. They have provided some lights on power-window controls which never works. It looks their is some circuit problem their which Tata Motor has still not fixed. Since first service they are telling me that part is out of stock. 8. Also, after third service engine noise has increas...ed a bit. Now you can very well listen it inside cabin. But still its not very disturbing when windows are up. 9. I noticed very late that when AC fan is at full speed you can barely listen to music or horn from cars behind. It makes too much sound. But yes, AC is so effective that I very rarely run it on full speed. 10. I am getting around 14 Km/liter mileage in bangalore with AC always on.Read More

Contd... 4. Only problem during the trip was rear-left tyre brusted near Hyderabad i.e. after 600 KM. I checked with my driver and as per him tyre pressure was about 31 and there was no stone/nail hit. Also, NH 7 is one of the best quality road in India. So I suspect the poor quality of Bridges...tone tubeless tyre which could not resist heat. This resulted purchasing of new tyre on the way which costed around 5k. When we tried claiming the warranty at Lucknow service center, they refused it and explained my driver that we need to claim insurance. Later after return to Bangalore during third service I got response from service engineer that Warranty incharge is not available so I need to bring tyre again for insepction. Few days back I again visited Concorde Motors and to my surprise they gave me one certificate stating that my tyre is brusted and asked me to visit/contact Bridgestone directly. they told that if it would have Good Year tyre they would have handled it. Strange! I am yet to contact Bridgestone but warranty incharge signalled me that Bridgestone will surely refuse warranty claiming that its not manufacturing defect. Lets see:(. So if by any chance you are purchasing Vista vechile insist that vechile should not have Bridgestone Tyre. Not sure if we have choice to do that. 5. I also noticed that lot of noise comes in this car if you are running on 100KM/hr. Service engineer told its because of tyre. 6. I am still facing the below problem. 'After driving for sometime on very slow speed with A/c on, some noise comes from right-back corner of car. It sounds bit similar to drum beat but you can not enjoy:(. First I thought it may be from speaker or rear seat or rear seat belt. But till now they are not able to find out from where this noise is coming. This noise comes occassionly and I was not able to reproduce during service visit:(' Read More

Today I logged in after long time and thought to share my futher experience till now. Now 3rd service is done and I had completed 12500KM.I couldn't change my service center as their are only 2-3 service center servicing Vista in Bangalore and they are far from my place. Also I would like to clarify... that I am not technical expert but all feedback are true end-user comments. 1. After second service most of the issues mentioned in my first post had gone or myself kind of adjusted to same. Now I handed over the driving seat to my driver. Afterall TATA make cars only for cab-drivers. They only can adjust with their car and service quality. 2. After second service Concord Motor, Bangalore changed some bush or washer kind of thing (not sure) for shock absorber. It temporarily solved the problem but noise reappeared after 7500KM. During 3rd service they again changed the same part and till now I had run 1500KM with no noise. 3. I must appreciate the engine quality of Quadrajet. Immediately after second service (in Dec 2009) my drivers drive the car from Bangalore to Lucknow and return with no mechanical issues. Total run was about 5000km.Read More
