Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Commonly occurring complaints and drawbacks of terrano?
  • You are lucky. Only 10 days back, the car again did not start, in the parking lot of the Columbia Asia hospital near my house. I had to call the Toll free number of Nissan. Their mechanic said that it is a fuel problem. The car was taken to the Nissan Service Centre on 22/8/2018. They have told me that the fuel pump needs to be changed. There are none in stock, with any dealer around. They have demanded one from Chennai. There is no news about when it will arrive. This happened once before, almost a year back, when the engine did not start and the car had to be loaded on a tow truck and moved to the service centre. Next day, it started on its own. They kept it for a week and then returned it. At that time, they felt that it was an electrical fault and placed a demand for new wiring. This was received after a week and the wiring was changed. If this happens in heavy traffic, it can lead to a serious accident.I have filed a complaint in District Consumer Forum about a year back. It is still to be decided.
  • (a) The car does not pick up speed quickly, even in 1st gear. (b) There is a noticeable lack of power, especially when climbing a slope. As a result, the car has to be driven in low gear, at high RPM. If the vehicle is fully loaded, it will be difficult to use the car in the hills on steep climbs. (c) The fuel efficiency of the car is low. According to the onboard computer, the car is giving a mileage of about 7 kmpl, against the rated figure of 13.2 kmpl. (d) Sometimes, after the engine is switched off, it does not start immediately when it is re-started. This happens when the engine stalls due to loss of power on a slope or when going over a speed breaker. This also happens occasionally when the engine is switched off with the starter key.
  • Not sure about pertol variant but for diesel no such problems to mecar AC can give some problems after 5-6 years, which can be resolved easily

    Test drive 

    Kia seltos 2023 is new and better in terms of safety as well.I am super excited about seltos 2023 and will definitely take it for a test drive once it's available on the market, As it gives you a greater sense of security by including 6 airbags as standard equipment on all models.
