REVIEW : I purchased chevrolet spark PS on 28-08-2009 The car has a
technical problem since the date of 2nd service . The car steering is not
smooth while entering in rough roads there is a dangerous sound in steering
assembly. The house pipe part of the steering has to be replaced completely
& even shockers are also not good as comparison to SANTRO . The company
will flourish only by the sales of spares, not on the car. Most of the car
is fiber made hence cannot make insurance claim completely in case of
accidents,the customer invariably has to pay .the insurance rules say that
100% on metal parts ,50%on plastic the labor charges ,the vat and taxes to
the customer and warranty ceases. The car definitely has a technical problem
that's the reason dip in their sales inspite of the hype.the braking system
is susceptible in case of emergencies. mileage is a concern to the
susceptible customers. the body is very delicate and can be dented easily
even by the fall of a mango. Car has covered only 7500 KM as on 31-01-2011
but nobody is ready to purchase this car even only in Rs.2lacks in locality
this was my bad luck that I went to CHEVROLET SPARK

REVIEW : I felt very uncomfortable when you have to feed alot of
petrol for the car to reverse,I have drove a Mazda and did not have a
problem like this.All I did was Release clutch and the car reverse but with
the chevrolet spark I have to feed alot to reverse which really made me not
want to drive anymore because instead of me reversing I have to worry if the
car is too fast to hit something from the back.
Driving a manuel car should be the same on all but why is it so different
when you have to put alot of effort in 1 and the other is not so much. Maybe
I'm doing something wrong, please advise.

REVIEW : Poor dealership, poor services and poor performance of car
as well. Go for Maruti/Hyndui without thinking today's cost.The spark is
cheap in rate as well as performance and services even when it is brand new
( I bought on 4.9.09 and faced alot of problems) There is no second hand
buyer of my car.

Spares are not available easily and are to be transported only from
chennai.the feedback service from delhi disturbs when in office and takes
yes or no only for a set of questions not anything ! We opine

REVIEW : I purchased Spark LT in February 2008. I felt proud to be
the owner of this car after seeing its elegant look and smooth driving. But
this joy was short as it had poor milage and service support.

REVIEW : I bought spark(PS model) in August 2008 and i found it nice
with attractive look. but after a month i found that engine gets heated up
after more than 8km drive and fan gets operated which makes me to feel
unsatisfactory in the product, also because of longer and big dash board
size, driving in the hilly area is difficult as the edge frame obstructs the
sight of the road and vehicles coming from the opposite sides. The seats are
very small and keeping the indicators and wiper switch different from the
normal cars makes confusing while driving

REVIEW : I have purchased Spark LS and was happy till the time it
was serviced. My millage dropped from 18 km/lt to 14 km/lts. I feel the car
is good but chevy can not shin in India until they have good service
centers. The servicing is horrible. I have tried in Noida with shiva motors
and in Goa with Sonoo Garage(Chevy authorised Servicing center). Both the
places i got very poor service. Chevy if you need to exist then improve
before you collapse. Now my Maruti Baleno gives better average as a big car
compared to Spark.

REVIEW : I had purchased Spark PS model in February 2008. But
I could not get the refund of balance amount of excise duty which was
announced by the Government in Budget and company had promised earlier
before purchasing. When I will get my refund. There is one thing also
when a car delivered from your dealer it has to be checked whether the
Clutch are working properly, Brakes are OK, Gears are functioning well.
There is a problem in this.

REVIEW : I bought a Ford Fiesta 1.4 zxi TDCi in April 07, The
posistive side is it's a fantastic car , very soomth drive on flat roads,
average milage. Let's talk the negatives less leg place at the rear. Poor
suspension and the BIGGEST NEGATIVE FOR FORD VERY VERY VERY POOR SERVICE AND
RESPONSE.Specially Wasn Ford Thane is very pathetic , no sense of
responsibility nad ownwership.
I would recomend if you have tolerance pl. buy FORD.

REVIEW : Hi, I bought Spark LT on June 8th and till now i have
driven for 250 Km and i felt really happy with car its very smooth compared
to Maruti's (800 and old Zen) and also smoother than Santro. 5 people of
average size can comfortably sit. I drove the car from Bangalore to Mysore
at 120Km/hr and really it was much stable. Felt bit difficult to put reverse
gear, probably that will be solved in first service. All over i felt thats a
very comfortable car with good mileage (also i did not particularly checked,
but could able to found out with fuel guage). The mileage i got with AC is
aprroximately equal to 15 km/ltr
