Southern Motors runs the Bangalore unit of Mitsubishi Lancer service center. This is with regard to the same.
I had given my Lancer for Service and minor repairs at their center in Aug 2004. I got the car back after 10 days since there was tinkering and painting work to be done.
After 3 days of delivery, I faced starting trouble with the car. Finally, it started after I tried a few times. Later in the evening when I tried starting the car, it refused to start.
I called the Bat Mobile people to check the battery and found that one the cells was not functioning. I also found that the battery no. was different from the one printed on the warranty card which means the battery had been switched.
Till the day I gave the car to the service center, I have never had a problem with starting the car or any other functions that work on the battery. I wonder how the battery got changed and why it has stopped working suddenly after service. I did not expect this from an authorized service center of Lancer.
