With good and bad comes XUV500

Pros : Cheetah looks, fabric, console

Cons : engine, last row

I own Mahindra XUV500 W8 from 3 months-2750kms, appearance is imposingly cheetah types, while there are some vital issues that need serious address. Once I faced some grinding sort of noise in brakes while on highways. I straightaway dragged it to Mahindra workshop next day, brake pads were changed. After 3 days same persisted, again I am at workshop, similar things again appeared, this time manager accepted that it’s ‘somewhat’ manufacturing issue. I would request all XUV-owners to complaint for this and ask company for recall. Till recall comes in, can anybody suggest any temporary remedy for it? Some better parts are the material used inside cabin is superior along with the hi-tech centre console that has perfect look and awesome gadgetry for entertainment. We are family of 8 and only kids seem comfortable at last-row having lesser legroom.
