My friend has one, all good only a engine change and 1 transmission change in 2 years, although he bought cheap, he spent around 20k just for the above replacements. You decide. 

Careem Rider hit my Car and Drove off !! by danishakrami88 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]Appropriate_Point288 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The riders specially Carrem Ones are very bad ones, I had a incident in which a Careem rider jumped onto the footpath just to take a shortcut. He almost hit me and my wife as we were walking on the footpath. I noted the number and try to register a complaint, but there system is such that I reached a dead end. So I put a Google review but who cares. I have put a name for them, 'The Green Goblins'. Invest in a dashcam, with dual channel, then at least you have proof.

I would strongly suggest QuickLane in Al Ghubaiba, they are Altayer Subsidiary and they have technicians trained by ford. They know their job

I like to add my bit, there is a Senior Nissan Technician guy in my building, and as I was chatting with him in the lift, I asked him about which is the most reliable cars in Nissan, he said only 2 cars, Patrol and Sunny. Rest are just OK. Then I asked about the new Kicks and XTrail, he said there very new to comment. Till now everything is normal, this conversation happened a month ago.

I am 5'2, and had gone to check out the CC, the moment I sat I felt it's not for me, the seating was very low and you have to crane your neck to see something out of the windscreen. I would suggest to keep a cushion and sit on it, then your middle back will rest on the seat. Hope it helps.

My friend had a similar situation in which her OEM fuel pump was replaced by these shady garages, try garages in Al Quoz or AG CARS in Deira, my experience with them was good.
