I recently placed my scooter in vacation mode for approximately three months. Upon attempting to start the scooter, I encountered difficulties, and it failed to power up. I promptly contacted Ola customer care multiple times, seeking assistance. Despite my efforts, the response from customer care was inadequate, prompting me to escalate the matter on Twitter. Following my Twitter escalation, I received a call from customer care, and they scheduled a tow for the next morning. Unfortunately, the scooter was towed in the afternoon, causing further inconvenience. There was a miscommunication between the tow company and Ola regarding the drop-off location (Location A vs. Location B).Upon visiting the service center, I was surprised to find that no one had inspected my scooter.
After insisting on a thorough check, the service center informed me that the issue lies with the battery. They quoted a repair cost of ₹25, 000 for battery replacement. However, my scooter’s battery is still within the warranty period. Regrettably, due to an issue with the Ola app (which has not been in sync for the past 3-4 months), I cannot display the vacation mode status to the service center staff. I am puzzled by the request to pay for a warranty-covered repair. If I must bear the cost, what purpose does the warranty serve? Ola’s reputation as a reputable company led me to expect better customer care and support.
I urge fellow Ola scooter owners to exercise caution.
The poor customer care experience and the substantial charge for a warranty-covered part are disappointing.
As a loyal customer, I did not anticipate encountering such challenges.
I sincerely hope that Ola Electric takes steps to improve its customer service and ensures that warranty-related issues are handled promptly and transparently. Was this information helpful? |
