No problem at all, sir! Been in the works for a long time.

To be very fair this list is by no means very long and certainly no worse than most other new vehicles. The difference with the Ssangyong Tivoli is the fantastic warranty as standard. So should any failure occur the owner will receive a replacement vehicle while the Tivoli is repaired free of charge. Nothing here would put me off buying a Ssangyong.

Yes, this is a list which probably seems longer than it really is. The warranty did eventually work for us. We did get a courtesy car offered, even if it was a really old one!

SsangYong cars seem pretty well built and many of these seem minor in the grand scheme of things. The warranty is definitely a useful thing to have!

I was speaking with a ssangyong engineer, he said the cars are pretty bullet proof, you get the odd lemon, like his korando (his engine sounds terrible but he couldnt find a fault, so its just what his is), he'd recommend any day.

I don't know why, but it seems from anecdotal evidence that the petrol Tivolis are much more reliable (although they still have their issues, as I found out when the clutch slave cylinder went in 2021). Sorry to hear about these problems!

I've a 2017 XLV plate that won't start. It's completely dead when pushing the brake and clutch starting procedure and the car cannot be accessed via the button on the door handle, it can only be accessed by using the pop open key fob. It's going into a dealership in a weeks time to see what the issue is?

My girlfriend bought a new Tivoli manual trans here in Medellín Colombia back in July 2021 ... it now has 20,000 kms on it .... At 10k , the transmission locked itself in reverse ... at 10k the front brakes also needed to be replaced ... at 15k , the clutch went out ... at 19k , the front driver and passenger power windows started not going up and down in proper alignment .... now at 20k , the transmission is very difficult to get into first gear.... going back into the shop again tomorrow.... I don't think I've ever seen a vehicle have so many issues in just over a year of ownership .... it's also the most underpowered vehicle I've ever driven .... Back in my home country , I own a Toyota corolla .... I had a problem with one of the key fobs once .... I wouldn't buy a Ssangyong , it's the most unreliable pile of crap I've ever seen .... and the issues I've described were not easy claims under warranty .... no replacement vehicle supplied while in the shop either (multiple occasions) ... just awful ... No thanks Ssangyong

@Timothy Brown I tend to agree in most cases , but my lady has owned many manual transmission vehicles over the years .... she's never even driven an automatic , as they're extremely rare here .... the most recent was a Chevy Sail (manual transmission) which she owned for many years , with zero transmission or clutch issues .... in THIS case , with such low mileage , I think it's an issue with build quality , and quality of components ... for warranty claims in Colombia, you need to go through your insurance , and they have covered some small items so far , but no loaner car .... crazy , I know , don't even get me started .. the window issues , definitely no relation to the driver, and you can't blame freezing or temperature fluctuations..... the under powered issue is unbelievable too .... Medellín is built between mountains ... if you have 4 average sized humans in the vehicle , it's nearly impossible to drive up a steep incline in anything higher than first gear ... so you have to rev the crap out of it constantly .... Bottom line (IMHO) , it's a piece of crap ... Cheers

This is NOT a scientific study with lots of data collected on the owners' cars, the sample size regulated and the data quantified, and the data sorted, just what owners from the Facebook group have said, and so you cannot really apply the same standards to this as one of those more scientific surveys. One thing that you haven't mentioned is the fact that lots and lots of owners love their cars, in spite of the issues reported, and of course, only the people who have had issues have replied overall, so we can't really call this a particularly scientific study.
