A new UAZ "Patriot" SUV broke down on the Moscow Ring Road 20 km after purchase, RTVI reports. The car owner Alexey said that problems appeared in the transmission.
The driver called the manager, who replied that such situations often happen with the new transfer case.
The story repeated itself already on Volgogradsky Prospekt. Again a call to the manager, again recommendations to tug the transfer case, in general, everything is in a circle. Then it began to repeat more and more often - not every 20 kilometers, but every 10.
Two months later, at a mileage of 1500 km, the car's engine broke down - I had to change the cylinder head assembly to a new one.
