Proton SUCKS!

I post up this blog post is not that I am Perodua fanboy or anti-Proton without experiencing it. The main reason I wrote this post is to remind all the people out there DON'T EVER BUY PROTON for the next 50 years to come or don't support Proton at all. This post is to remind those who thinking of buying any Proton cars in the future. Or else prepare for your pocket to have a bigger hole when it comes to maintenance.

I am already fed up with the current state of the car since day one.

Day One: While collecting the car, the car had a big rusted scratch on the bonnet part which initially didn't realized until my parent take a glimpse on the bonnet. Plus, the stupid salesperson insists me signing the delivery form which I don't want to sign due to the poor handling until there is rust on it. Ok fine with that.

Day 16: The car is still new, while one day I open the bonnet and have a look at the engine. To my surprise, the power steering fluid had reduced below the maximum line. Like 1/2 cm from the original line. Then I keep on monitoring the fluid loss after that day.

Below maximum level.

Day 20: The power steering fluid does reduced. So make my way to the service center. What is more shocking, the people there working said :"Kereta baru mana ada kurang punya?". That word from a service people really pissed me off. They checked that nothing wrong....no sign of red coloured oil leaking. Fine...head back home without doing a single thing. Poor attitude.

Day 27: A week after that, the steering oil reduced to minimum line. This time around I don't fucking care and insisted them to change me a new steering rack. They still don't believe that it's leaking. I told them takkan I buka and minum itu steering oil ka? Leave it over night and let them inspect.

Day 28: Confirmed that it is the steering oil leaking. Fine. Left it another night let them change it.

After a good 4 months later, now the brakes started to give me some weird sound. It came out from the rear brakes(drum brakes). Everytime in the morning when I reverse it came out some screeching sound like the front brake pads already worn out that kind of sound.

Fine, I can tolerant with that sound. Until today, even when I am driving at 30km/h to 40km/h that sound is even more intense. I suspect there is something very wrong with my rear brakes. Now there you go, another round of sending fucking Proton car to service center.

The car haven't even been using for long journey traveling and not yet even 1 year of using it. So many problems with the QC already. Even my mom's Perodua is already more than 3 years of usage and have not experience a single defects unlike my dearest Proton.

What you think? Is Proton still improving? Maybe yeah in the next 50 years to come. Seriously Proton haven't even changed their lazy attitude of Tak Ada la, Mana Ada la, Where got la all those shit. Can you ever believe a car that is less than 1 month old already having steering oil leaking? Wow! How "Great" is Proton's QC. My arse.

It's not I like Perodua, this is the reality. Perodua's QC are far way better than Proton in every aspect. This is my personal experience when owning a Proton car. Please don't ISA me because of this matter. Sorry for my extremely harsh words in this post. Just voice up my opinion.

This would be the 1st and last proton car I ever own in my whole entire life. KthxBai Proton.
