Mahindra Scorpio N Clutch Issues
In this video clip on YouTube, the owner of a new Scorpio N tells his misfortunes on a highway. As per the information in the video, the owner is at the Peripheral Expressway with his family. Suddenly the clutch of the SUV becomes dead. The owner shows that the clutch stays pressed and refuses to retract after application. This, certainly, makes driving it impossible. The owner and his family are stranded on the road. The RSA also didn’t respond 3 times when the owner tried to contact them. Finally, after trying 5 times, the RSA registered the complaint and sent the towing truck to the spot.
