Who said Perodua Myvi is the toughest local manufactured car? After this incident, it’s proven that Proton X50 is very tough too!
Today a netizen took social media to share a car crash happened during a journey where a sales assistant drove a brand new Proton X50 from KL to JB. The cause of accident was suspected due to speeding, and it was a close to total loss.
His post read:
Wow~According to some source the sales assistant of this brand new car was delivering the car to the owner all the way from KL to JB. He was said drove 180km/h in the highway and ended up crashing the car.
But the problem is the new car was registered but not delivered to the car owner yet. Who is going to responsible for it now? Proton or the car insurance or the sales assistant who drove the car?
Some said it can’t be claimed under total loss yet, but even the car is well repaired will the car owner still take it ?
▼ From the pictures shown, it can be seen the brand new red Proton X50 was badly damaged.
▼ The front and car roof was badly damaged and dented. Car windows also shatter in the crash too.
▼ The netizen, Pierre then followed up with another post to explained further on the incident:
The post read:
It’s a bit complicated as a Malay Sales assistant from JB is the one who sold the car. She got the car from a branch in KL. She planned to go KL to drive the car back on Mar 6 for her customer. But the branch in KL rejected her suggestion with the reason only their own staff was allowed to deliver the car. Thus, the arrangement was a man, who is their staff will delivered the car JB.
This man didn’t followed the timing as well as the route given. At the end of the day, he was driving with a high speed and causing the crash.
The Malay Sales assistant waited for the car in JB for more than 12 hours and ended with news that the car was badly crashed.
▼ The staff who delivered the car was not contactable, she kept following up with him until she received a picture of the crash, she was speechless!
▼ The Malay Sales assistant decided to lodge a police report following the crash.
Let’s check out the netizens’ comments:
▼ ” What a good salesman, wonderful customer service to the extend risking his life to test the car design whether safer in the car crash”
▼” Boss: “My car reached, help me to test the car, if no problem then ok
Salesman : Don’t worry boss, i tested the car. This car don’t have any problem, See! so tough !”
▼ Some netizens trying to imagine the car owner’s reaction
▼” Car signal still on, doesn’t consider total loss yet”
▼” Even car roof was badly damaged, should be total loss right?”
▼ One netizen claimed this will be a total loss case according to his past experience.
▼ ” My concern is, this is your customer’s car and why are you driving so fast. Isn’t it, it’s not your car then you should be more careful? You are crashing the car that owned by someone. This salesman don’t have the sense of responsibility”
▼One is asking,”Isn’t it the new car will be sending by Car carrier trailer? Why the Salesman drove the car?”
and another netizen replying and said,” The new cars will be sending to company with Car carrier trailer but for individual buying car will be send via the sales personnel. It’s their after sales service.”
