Grand i10 - a worst option to buy

Grand i10 - a worst option to buy

I brought a new Grand i10 (Manual 1.2 CC) - 2 months back from Hyundai Sandton Centre, Johannesburg. I use my car to communicate from office to home and home to office only (16 KM on one side)and has only done 1500 KM on it. Suddenly, on Friday while returning from office - it stopped in a middle of a road - gear box got jammed. I couldn't able to start it and change the gear. Also, there was a burning smell coming from car.

SO, I called my Insurance to tow car and got it delivered to Sandton service center for repair. Today I got a call from service centre and they told me clutch plate is burnt due to poor driving style. I couldn't understand this as I was driving Fiat Punto for last 7 years and never ever faced even a single issue like this. If driving s**** is an issue then why there were no issues with Punto for 7 years. Or is it a case service centre trying to cover up some manufacturing fault. Or are Hunyadi car so delicate and unreliable to drive?

Feel like I did a big mistake by buying Hyundai Grand i10. I should have kept my Fiat Punto or would have gone with other brand.:( :( Poor product quality .. poor customer experience.
