In Indonesia most of Saga/Persona is used as taxi. Before I bought the car, I interviewed some taxi drivers who drove Saga/Persona. I asked them if there was any problem with the car. They said Saga/Persona is a good car, even after 300,000km (3 years). The only problem is the reliability of Saga’s suspension which is very poor and need frequent replacement. And also poor stability when cornering at relatively high speed (80km/h above).

Compare to their Korean counterparts : Kia Rio, Hyundai Avega, & Chevrolet Kalos, Proton still give better value. But due to scepticism of most people the resale value is below the other brand. Very ironic.

Anything that’s really ab-normal, they’ll tell you it’s normal.
eg. sticky tape & glue are often found on their new cars to hold the bits-n-pieces in place.
When these items become loose and start to vibrate (eventually falling off), they’ll tell you that’s normal.

Over time, the staffs at SC become so bored about the QC problems that they look like zombies when you ask them to service your problem-ridden new car.

While all these are happening, the top management are probably enjoying their holidays overseas.

If you don’t buy their cars, they say you don’t support Malaysian made product.
If you buy it, they let you “enjoy” the QC problems while they may be having a good laugh.
