"[i] Well the Super 3 has its issues as detailed on other threads on this forum but the scary one is the failure of the rear hub bearings - not an issue if they fail while pottering around town but when they fail while your in the Swiss Alps on a pass, well that's just scary - and more worryingly MMC knew about the issue from the first months of customer cars being released yet just informed dealers to check the hub when the car came in for a service....Luckily the owners affected didn't suffer a major accident.
Thank you. I was not aware of any issues. [i]Forgive me. The more I age the more I become an unabashedly trad person. Not much interest, aside from concerns for the marque and a residual interest in business decisions.
Have they found a cure for the bearing problem yet?
So although the new management may on the face of it be providing an improved level of care...
Yes. They have already spent many millions and more to come with the now defunct M3Ws. The sums will be much greater than what they paid for the entire company.
they are still falling short when engineering issues that affect safety are not being rectified immediately - So sounds very much like the same situation as the early years 5 speeder owners found themselves in - so in reality nothing has changed at MMC
Sad to hear. Not to defend them, we could say one cannot reverse 20 years of a different management style after only a short period with the same staff (bless'em). I also imagine they were occupied with the CX Recalls during the pandemic. BIG job.
In the current world, the only thing consumers of anything are fed is advertising copy, constantly rosy public announcements and slavish worship from the local media. That is what makes facts are so refreshing these days. We only have a few reliable sources, occasionally people like yourself like (thank you) and Companies House
numbers, properly interpreted. (Ignore its preamble )
And MMC wonder why the Super 3 is not selling....
I am also...
It is a discordant note in my fledging hopes.
Why not ask them these questions? Regardless of the current business practices in society, it is much more comfortable to buy from a Company that is open and opulently stands behind its products,. That is very much in the old tradition that originally built the legendary reputation and Morgan mystique. I like that.
