How responsive is Proton Holdings's customer service?

Very poor 🤒
We don't know much about how Proton Holdings handles customer complaints outside ComplaintsBoard, but what we see here, on our website, is quite disappointing. We think there might be reasons for the company's actions (like not knowing about the complaints), and we would be happy to see them among customer-focused businesses that easily solve customer problems. But until that happens, we ask reviewers to be cautious when dealing with Proton Holdings and using their services, and to carefully read the experiences of other customers on ComplaintsBoard, because who is warned is armed, you know! 💪

Proton Holdings Poor sa services

2020 june booking payment rm1000
30th march get chasis number
30th of march settle my downpayment.
5th march purchase 2nd car plate
8th april get the found the car plate mistake company reg number
Sad.. Sa only knows the reservation waiting committee
1. What service? I spent a long time in my car... Requiring a small amount of time from the bank; requesting a different bank...; sending the documents a few times...
2. I provide the license plate number that I want, and she asks the customer to solve it by herself, and has never taught how to mark the company's license plate. The result was wrong, she said that the same situation can be replaced in jpj.. I have to queue for more than 3 hours.. Why don't you start by asking runners to prepare for customers, and want to get commissions but not work?
3. Complain to the branch manager for poor sa service and promise to refund my car plate and buy me a new one..
I sent me the car license registration form on march 5th... It was only found out that the company registration number was wrong on april 8th.. I didn't check it a month ago. Did the car get checked until it arrived?
I went to jpj cheras officer for inquiries, and he told me that I could go to wangsa maju to cancel the wrong document and buy back the same license plate, which can be resolved quickly
If the other party does not handle it anymore, do you need to report to the police center
Pls provides quality sa services to pronton's customers. It is not only necessary to understand the detailed information of the car model, but also to understand the basic service knowledge. Isn't that why the customer is asked to do it himself, and the customer can't get the service for the commission?
Hope hq takes my matter seriously。 thanks

Proton Holdings X50 booking no answer from proton

To whom this may concern from Proton's customer care,

I'm writing to inquire on the delivery date of my order and to seek for reasonable explanations in respect to my serious concerns.

The attachment herein is a copy of the Vehicle Sales Order (VSO). To summarize, the material specifications of my order is as follows: -

(1) X50 1.5 TGDI FLAGSHIP (JET GREY)

(2) Important to highlight that although the VSO stipulates the colour being Citric Orange, it has been amended to Jet Grey in the system itself.

(3) Location: Proton (Sing Siang Hin (M) Sdn Bhd), Taman Melawati.

To begin with, the government has introduced a stimulus package (PENJAJA) which includes the exemption of sales tax for passenger cars between 15th June 2020 to 31st December 2020, of which the sales tax is fully waived for locally assembled cars like the X50.

Moreover, a Proton salesman represented that the car will most likely arrive within 2 months from the date stipulated under the VSO and definitely by the end of 2020 together with the sales tax exemption (STE) to my advantage. Consequently, I relied on his statement alongside the STE acting as an incentive to instantly place an order on the X50. There are no disruptions on my end as my bank loan has been approved and the car's number plate is registered.

As we are approaching the end of 2020, serious concerns have emerged as the STE expires on the 31st December 2020. Thus, I have undertaken continuous efforts to unfold a conclusive answer of when my order will arrive.

Firstly, Proton Taman Melawati provided vague replies and claimed that they only received the X50 TDGI Flagship in every colour EXCEPT for Jet Grey. As my order is 3rd in line of the said variation, the first two customers have not received their orders and are yet to discover the date they will be in supply. Why are other colours available but Jey Grey? Is there a manufacturing deficiency of X50 TDGI Flagship in Jet Grey? This impacts me in absolute uncertainty at the expense of forfeiting the STE, resulting in a financial burden.

Secondly, I have contacted other Proton Authorised Dealers such as the one in Bandar Baru Bangi and Bandar Sungai Long, wherein they have been allocated the variation of my order. The supply of cars should be allocated according to the confirmed orders, why is it available in other outlets but Taman Melawati?

Unfortunately, as of today, there is still no conclusive answer from Proton Taman Melawati of when the X50 TDGI Flagship in Jet Grey will be in supply despite my reasonably practical efforts.

If my car were to arrive in 2021, the net selling price will increase as the STE expires. Time is in the essence of a contract and if I have performed my obligations as a purchaser through obtaining an approved bank loan and a readily available registered number plate, Proton should execute its obligations by delivering on time as represented.

To resolve the mentioned issues, I would appreciate a prompt response of the determinate delivery date and demand for damages payable by Proton if the delivery of my order is executed after the STE expires on the 31st December 2020.

I look forward to your reply, co-operation and resolution of my significant concerns.

Regards,

Ronny Hoh

Proton Holdings Ertiga mdb3892

Hi
I have send my car Ertiga for warranty claim for air cond compressor somewhere in Oct 2020 at GT 1 Taman Merdeka Permai Melaka. Still now there is no proper feedback on the replacement. Even I call few times the Proton customer service they mention the spare parts center will update in 48 hrs. I waited for them no respond. It shows that the management system on handling customer service after sale is totally screw up and to wait for more 2 months. Just imagine how can we wait too long even can't refund the cost if we get repair from third parties. Now the car is laying under roof and unable use due now is raining sessions. I hope this will be last proton car for me.

My Nov 2021 CKD X70 on the 2nd month have BSM problem, uneven rubber sealed on the door window and other minor issue that will get SC to rectify on my 10K service.
In my opinion if your SC still can't resolve all your issue, its advisable to make complains at FB "Geely Global" or email to "globalservice@geely.com" By doing this proton HQ will be more serious to tackle its very very bad reputation service centres & after sales service.

Proton Holdings accident insurance claim

Hi Proton,

Kereta saya kemalangan pada 1/12/2019 dan dihantar ke Proton Edar Glenmarie. Pihak insurance telah meluluskan pada 17/12/2019 dan sampai sekarang 4/2/2020 sudah menunggu hampir 3 bulan kereta masih belum siap. Setiap kali menelefon Proton Edar Glenmarie, alasan yang sama diberikan iaitu alat ganti masih belum diterima. Semalam juga saya menelefon Proton Edar Glenmarie tetapi diminta menunggu lagi beberapa minggu.Saya sungguh kecewa dengan perkhidmatan yang diberikan oleh Proton Edar Glenmarie.

Proton Holdings proton iriz 1.3 executive

Hi I would like to formally complaint about the iriz that I have recently bought.
So I got my iriz 2019 1.3 executive variant on the September of 24 2019 ! According to the their instructions I went to service my car on 30 October 2019 in the bayan lead service center,
And less then two months after getting my car I nearly had a accident. On 16 Nov 2019, I planned to have a short trip with my friend to Kuala Kurau. We start our trip from Bayan Lepas heading to Penang second bridge and PLUS highway. While we were crossing the bridge, it pop up with a notification mentioned that the vehicle was in "low oil pressure". I cannot just stop the car on the bridge due to safety purpose so I forced to keep drive and find a nearest stop point to stop my car, which is Ikea Batu Kawan.
The moment when we just entered the car park, my car suddenly stop working and couldn't be start when ever I tried. The car stopped at the middle of the road, and luckily there's no car behind us. How could something like this even happen? I would get it if it's a old model/car but for a car that is not even two months old that is ridiculous! Im very shock to this issue because I just service my car two weeks ago.
If I had not decided to cut short my trip and drive it to a nearest building to try to find a place to stop driving, I am sure that my car would died in a middle of a speeding highway and this may put me and my friend (passenger) into a dangerous situation.
I hope you guys proton will take this kind of complaint seriously as this is no way in norm to have a car broke down after servicing it two weeks beforehand and the car itself is not even two months old
This issue makes me sick! I had to waste my time and spent about RM120 to call for tow truck to move my car to the nearest Proton service centre. Also I still haven't gotten my car back and it's already been more then three days with no updates what so ever what is this kind of service. This kind of things is what makes people not want to buy Malaysia home made product!

Please assist to let me know what I can do to resolve the sensor issue.
