In one post on Facebook, a MG Hector owner is frustrated at the quality of the SUV. MG has found many customers for the Hector primarily due to the internet-enabled connected car tech and other modern features it offered. It was among the first cars in India to have dedicated internet. That caught the attention of many new customers who were tech-savvy. However, many owners also complained that despite offering so many features, the quality of the products and components inside the vehicle were not high quality. This incident further strengthens that point. Let us take a look at what the entire issue is.

Hector Owner Frustrated With The Quality of SUV
A certain Deepak Choudhary, who is an engineer by professional according to the designation in his name on Facebook, shared his terrible experience with his MG Hector. He went to the hospital in Ghaziabad to pick his wife after she was discharged from the hospital. This, as one would imagine, is a crucial time when a lot of care is required as she had just been discharged. However, Deepak found that his car has some issue and he couldn’t use it. He had to call the RSA to get it towed away to the service workshop. He doesn’t mention what exactly was the problem. But he clearly criticizes the quality and reliability of MG products. His frustration and anger are visible through this post.
