I have a major problem with My Maruti Swift 2006 model with the rats entering inside the cabin of my car. It has spoiled the interiors by biting the floor mats, seats and other fabric. Besides this it leaves a bad smell with its urination and leaving other waste insde the car.
The blower gets jammed with the waste such as papers, mango seeds, waste cloth etc which is dropped by the rats from outside and with the blower ON it makes a hell of a noise and also smells horrible(a health hazzard when the AC is switched on with unnecessary waste stuck in the blower)...I have had the blower cleaned through the Maruti Authorised service centre atleast 5 times in past 3 months and this problem is causing a huge distress to me as i need to keep getting this cleaned.
Any document or paper let inside the car is shredded completly...not sure how much of demage it has already done to the wiring inside the car...
This is such a poor design by Maruti where it hasn't taken care of such a basic problem... I have visited atleast 3 authorised service centres (Nexus, Mandovi, Bimal) and non of them have a solution for this and they act helpless.
Will Maruti really wake up and do something about this problem and help some of their loyal customers like me (I own a swift and also a 800 which i plan to upgrade shortly)...Iam sure people like me will pass on information about these basic defects in the car to other friends and relatives and stop them from buying a maruti product...Maruti should really do something about this and help me get rid of this problem.
