Weixiaobao11 Neutral Newbie May 18, 2011 Author Share May 18, 2011 actually this issue have been started since 2009. mine was the 2009 series. need to wait for nearly 4 months to get the car. bro, advise for you when take the car check every area and some blind spot also. might either have a small dent or small scratches. if some ppl feel is ok then no worries. mine was a visable scratch mark at the side mirror. upon check tell them on the spot they state that if u want take if not need to wait for a couple of months. so is just the matter of the driver willing to wait. Wah wait a few more months then COE expired Liao.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Civic6228 6th Gear May 18, 2011 Share May 18, 2011 That was what I thought too. If entire shipment only Soul then they LL have to accept? Cannot be that case. They blamed it on Kia, say they Kenna played out by them also.. Just my luck. The more I thought of it the angrier I am. I will share their names once I get my car. Just worried they might heard of this and then play the waiting game with me or even sabo the car. Better to be safe. Singapore is not small and some of them might be members of MCF! Agree .... please share the name after "all the dust settle." Did you speak to the Manager today ? What is the latest update ? C&C no professional in handing your case lei. One other thing, please check your car carefully when you collect the car. Do not accept if you have any issues. My friend has complaints on the paintwork and he is sending his car for spraying. Make sure that they rectify the complaints before you accept your car. A few more days will not make a difference afterall you have waited so long for the car liao.

They betta get it fixed. Hopefully not. They caught my weak spot - gan cheong to collect. But then, who isn't? Any bros out there considering buying a Kia can pm me, will share the name / coy name privately. Thks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilazz Neutral Newbie May 18, 2011 Share May 18, 2011 (edited) That's what I thought so too. Impossible that there is not a single white 6speed forte in Singapore over the last 3 mths. Got my COE in May first bidding and now chasing them for car. No more excuses for them. If my SE is not going to give me any additional accessories as compensation, I'm going to bang table and not pay the Coe-top up as agreed. No happy no pay. Shouldn't be nice anymore. they sure to push the fault and pointing fingers to the HQ. so that we cannot do anything about it. but still who is really at fault we won't be able to know. they sure bound to say is internal issues. there again push away the fault. :angry: Edited May 18, 2011 by Devilazz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We as consumers does not know what is going on at the back and hence can't really pin point whose fault is it. Bottomline is I need a logical explanation on all these delays and so far didn't really get a satisfactory answer. Got angrier when other bros already got their cars and im still playing the waiting game. It doesn't really helps when the big boss is my bro's fren father! And really got "special Privileges"!

Cymagnus Clutched May 18, 2011 Share May 18, 2011 I think that time before you top up for COE, you should nego for more freebies, timeline to get COE and car, if not tell them to give you back deposit and you can look for another make. This is what i did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beehive3783 Turbocharged May 18, 2011 Share May 18, 2011 Their commitment is really doubtful. Was told they dunno what's in the shipment until the ship docked. How can they be shipping something over without informing? Don't believe the Koreans do their business in such manner. If change to other models like optima and koup, need to top up and doesnt have the color that I wanted. No pt falling into the hands of the SE, ESP gan cheong first time buyer like me! :( The waiting is crap! They talk c--k one la.. even before the ship sails, they should already have shipping invoice and packing list, which will list in detail the contents of the shipment. How can the AD not know what shipment they are receiving from Korea? IMO, there could be shortage of parts somewhere, or the KIA factory is on strike. Both more plausible explanations rather than "They don't know what's in the shipment until the ship is docked". Haha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what i did. Im a bad negotiator I guess. Now got COE already, LL. If take COE and go to another make, need to pay more than current market price. Cannot forfeit COE also..
