Remember car one moment, MPV the next? Well, a few batches have been out and here are some feedback on issues and problems faced by some of the Alzarians they call themselves:

Alza_prob_others

1) Noise from the outside gets in when travelling at high speed. Apparently this was due to the design of car. We spoke to one of the Perodua agents and they said this issue has been resolved.
2) Braking noise: This could be due to the car/ brakes being new.
3) 3rd row right hand seat heats up over long distance journeys. This problem is yet to be justified and validated.
4) Extremely noisy when rain falls on the roof. This could be due to poor (maybe none) sound insulations. There have been reports saying that the noise is bearable. Spoke to another agent about this as well but they said they have not tried to test drive the car during heavy rain. Makes sense. Who would want to go for a test drive while it is raining right? : )
5) Rustproof at the undercarriage is uneven. Now this needs careful attention. However, this may not happen to all models.
6) Paint coating is not even as well.
7) Air cond makes funny kind of noise (like rats??). Apparently, the belts are not properly tighten.

Wheel-o-sopy.com : Don’t get us wrong. We do support Perodua. We did in fact get a unit for ourselves and that is what made us do some research online. There have been some localized scary stories about getting their Alza in bad condition. Always remember to check before registering. Good thing is that the fuel consumption is very efficient. We understand that there is a higher than expected demand for the Perodua Alza but hopefully the quality doesn’t suffer out of this; hence the QC department may have to step up a gear or else Perodua will end up no different from Proton (which have actually improved significantly over the years in terms of quality control). Do pray with us that our Alza gets here in perfect condition ; )
