Drivers in Moscow are faced with a situation that is unbelievable in market times: the only way to arrive “tomorrow” is at dealer centers, which have not suffered
Monstrous changes have affected all sectors of the Russian car market: new brands, new price lists, new names and spare parts, new stores and, of course, new rules of car maintenance. You can of course try to get service ‘as before’ – from the ‘official’, but chances are you’ll turn gray at the cash register as soon as you see the bill.
There is no warranty, there are no spare parts, people have turned to simpler servicemen who are willing to fight for the customer, will offer a better price and do the job, as practice shows, with better quality. And no large-scale replacement: if a part can be repaired, it will be repaired. However, the reason for the long queues at gas stations in Moscow is different. It is more global and related to the current situation in the car market.
The lack of opportunities to buy a new car of a well-known brand and its high prices, coupled with the not so best reputation of the Chinese automotive industry, led to a very interesting trend: Muscovites began to clear out their cars . The news that you will have to drive with what you have first shocked you, then caused anger, and at the moment of acceptance it led to the only right thought: you need to fix it.
And worldwide, and not patching up what has already been patched, hoping for a blue electrical tape miracle. Classic. As a result, the capital’s elevators are filled with “major repairs”: engines, gearboxes, suspension structures and subframes, a global “body” with overcooked bottoms. For example, registration for the slipway is already valid for January, after the holidays.
All this is a long job. But searching and waiting for spare parts takes even longer. At the delivery points there are piles of body parts, quarters and body halves, as well as large assemblies and suspension assemblies. Even such an in-depth car repair, during which it was sent to the free classifieds site a few years ago, today is justified and financially feasible. And people started making old cars. Because they are familiar and normal. Because they can be repaired.
So, get in line, citizens, get in line…
