No matter how popular a car model or car manufacturer is, there is no guarantee that their vehicles will be free of problems. This especially becomes a norm when a new car is launched. Generally, the first few batches of a new vehicle tend to suffer from a lot of problems. Recently, a person became a victim of this, as his newly purchased Tata Safari facelift Dark Edition started to encounter some huge problems just 10 days after the purchase. What was even worse was that the side curtains of his car were blown off when the dealership tried to solve some other issues.

Tata Safari facelift Dark Edition problems

The video of this particular Tata Safari facelift Dark Edition suffering from numerous problems has been shared on YouTube by Prateek Singh on their channel. It starts off with the presenter elaborating a story that was shared on X (Twitter) by a person who recently bought a brand-new Safari facelift Dark Edition. The creator of the video explained that the owner had to take his Safari facelift back to the dealership just 10 days after the purchase.

He elaborated that the owner complained that his new top-of-the-line Safari’s new digital instrument gauge cluster stopped working. The owner added that after this, even the windows and the left side LED headlights and DRLs also stopped working. Apart from these, the owner complained that a few of the ADAS features also didn’t function, including the emergency braking. He explained that the car could not detect a car in front to apply brakes. The owner of the car also shared a few videos showing the problems.

What happened next?

Following the repeated issues, the owner of the Safari facelift had to take his car to the dealership. He mentioned to them about all of the problems with the car, and they started working on it. What happened next was during the assessment of the electrical system by technicians of the dealership, somehow the curtain airbags of the SUV were deployed.

A video clip of the CCTV footage showing dealership staff getting shocked when the airbags deployed has also been added. In the video, it can be seen a few employees of the dealership were standing beside the car when the airbags randomly got deployed. The owner of the car also mentioned that he noted that the technicians of the dealership were inexperienced, and this might have been one of the reasons behind this incident.

At the moment, the owner of the car on X has not informed if he has been provided with any solution. Most likely, Tata Motors will be taking note of the situation and offering a solution to the customer. However, it has to be mentioned that such a new car should not be suffering from such problems. We understand that the cars today have a lot of electronics and things can malfunction, but a 10-day-old car suffering from such issues is a matter of huge concern.
