Due to the rising prices of petrol, people are now moving towards electric vehicles, thinking that this will not only reduce the cost of fuel but also the cost of servicing. But recently the servicing bill of an electric scooter came so big that everyone was shocked.
Recently, a customer got his Ather electric scooter serviced and received a bill of Rs 8,000. Anyone can be shocked to see this bill. The owner of the scooter, Ishwar, has shared the photo of this bill on the microblogging platform, which has brought this matter to light even more.
Age and condition of the scooter
This Ather scooter is about 4 years old and has covered a distance of 13,398 kms so far. Normally, a scooter of this distance and age should not need such major servicing. Ishwar says that servicing his 10-year old car is cheaper than this.
Response from service center
The scooter owner says that the service center asked him to delete the post and in return offered free service in the future. However, the scooter was giving a P014 error due to a charging problem, and the service center found several problems. The one-year warranty for faulty parts resulted in such a high bill.
People have given different reactions to this incident. One user wrote, "First I was robbed in the price of the car, now I am being robbed in the name of servicing." Similarly, scooter owner Ishwar says that he has been trying to buy an Ather service pack for the last two months, but has not been successful. If the service pack was active, then perhaps the servicing bill would have been less.
There can be many reasons behind such a huge bill on the servicing of an electric scooter. This can include defective parts of the scooter, lack of service pack, and warranty terms. This incident has raised questions about the cost of servicing an electric scooter. If you are also thinking of buying an electric scooter, then you should also pay attention to the cost of servicing and maintenance. It is important to note that the cost of electric vehicles may be low initially, but the cost of servicing can also be significant in the long run.
