        Hello everyone,

        I had given my new Honda Amaze for servicing at Landmark Honda (Bopal, Ahmedabad).

        Unfortunately, while the car was with them, visible damage occurred.

        Initially, it wasn’t disclosed by the workshop. Only after pointing it out, they acknowledged it.

        I have already registered complaints with Honda India and the National Consumer Helpline (docket numbers available).

        Currently facing financial inconvenience and stress due to the situation.

        What steps can I take legally to ensure proper compensation and action?

        Appreciate any advice. Thanks!

          Wait for Honda and dealership final conclusion or reply from email or written. If you are not satisfied with that then you can hire lawyer. If repair cost is less than what lawyer charges then I suggest you to not go court step just do repair.

          Why not suggesting Court process because lawyer will easily charge 50k+. This process might take 6 around. At end if you win care they will repair or replace part. You will get around 10k legal fees. If you lose then there is nothing can be done. Losing will cost you double amount.

          Take cctv of your car service from start to end.
          I am not lawyer

              *Court process will take 1 to 6 month.

                -The car was only 6 months old ,
                -And the car is named to my grandfather senior citizen,
                -They damaged car and did conceal fact by not telling us hoping that we will accept the damaged car and shift blame to us,
                -the solution they are giving is that will manually paint locally which we result in our car significant value loss as it will have difference in car thickness, shade, density
                -they are not providing us cctv footage
