To: Consumer Court / Automobile Complaints Panel


I am filing this official complaint against OLA Electric Mobility Pvt. Ltd. for gross negligence, poor customer support, safety violations, and withholding my vehicle without any accountability. This issue has caused severe mental stress, safety risk, and financial inconvenience.

1. Chronology of the Issue


My Ola S1 Pro suddenly broke down with:


  • Severe motor malfunction (Error: โ€œScooter issue, changed to parking modeโ€)
  • Heavy noise from both front and rear
  • Burning smell indicating possible fire hazard
  • Fast battery drain
  • Loose panels and structural instability

I narrowly escaped a potential accident, and the scooter was not safe to ride further.




2. OLA Support Failed to Provide Emergency Assistance


Despite raising multiple tickets and contacting:


  • OLA Social Media Team
  • Customer Care
  • Grievance Redressal Officer
  • Local Store Manager

No one provided timely support, and I was left stranded for hours. Instead of emergency assistance, I received delayed callbacks and no actionable help.




3. Vehicle Was Towed 60โ€“70 KM Away Without My Consent


The scooter was picked up and delivered to OLA Service Center โ€“ Tathwade, Pune, which is 70 km from my residence, causing massive inconvenience.


Even after delivering the vehicle:


  • Job card was not created for hours
  • No acknowledgement
  • No repair timeline
  • No status update
  • No commitment to return the vehicle

Effectively, OLA is withholding my scooter without providing any transparency.




4. Complete Breakdown of OLAโ€™s Escalation Matrix


It is evident that OLAโ€™s support system is non-functional:


  • Customer care does not respond
  • Social media team only posts promotions but ignores safety complaints
  • Store managers deny responsibility
  • Grievance officers are unreachable
  • No escalation path works

They are drawing salaries without performing basic duties, while customers suffer.




5. Major Consumer Safety Concern


The company is neglecting basic consumer safety by:


  • Not addressing a scooter with burning smell and motor failure
  • Ignoring urgent safety risks
  • Not following emergency protocols
  • Failing to provide alternative transport or early response

This is a serious threat to life and public safety.




6. My Requests to the Honโ€™ble Consumer Court


I respectfully request the forum to:


  1. Direct OLA Electric to immediately repair and return my vehicle (MH12UQ0528) within a defined timeline.
  2. Conduct an internal audit of OLAโ€™s customer support and escalation matrix for non-compliance.
  3. Compensate for the mental stress, harassment, and risk caused due to:
    • Lack of emergency assistance
    • Negligent handling of a safety-critical issue
    • Withholding my vehicle
    • Transportation done 70 km away without consent and Pick up acknowledgement.
  4. Issue strict instructions to OLA Electric to prioritize consumer safety, timely grievance handling, and transparency.



7. Conclusion


OLA Electric has demonstrated severe negligence, irresponsibility, and failure to uphold consumer rights. This is not just my experience โ€” thousands of Indian consumers are facing similar issues, and OLA continues to ignore complaints.


I request urgent action from the Consumer Court to address this matter and protect consumers from such unethical practices.
 
Dear Ola Electric Team,

I own an Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 scooter.

My scooter display was replaced earlier at the service center. After the display replacement, several MoveOS features stopped working.

Current issues:
โ€ข Navigation map not working
โ€ข Geofencing not applying
โ€ข Sport / Hyper mode cannot be controlled from the Ola app
โ€ข App shows โ€œSync in progressโ€
โ€ข Range drop
โ€ขDIY mode spoofing
โ€ขSpeaker very slow display changed
โ€ขAnd more others features are not working ๐Ÿ˜•

The scooter shows network and correct time, but features are not syncing.

I have contacted customer support multiple times over the last 10โ€“11 months, but the issue is still unresolved. The Bhavnagar service center is also closed, which makes it difficult to get assistance.

I request your technical team to check this issue urgently and arrange remote service or technician visit from the nearest hub.

Vehicle: Ola S1 Pro Gen 3
Location: Bhavnagar, Gujarat

Kindly resolve this issue at the earliest.

Regards
