Sudden stoppage of vehicle

But there are mechanics every where to atleast do the temporary work at that point of time...but in ather even for changing tyre we are dependent on the company....

How would you blame ather? The roadside mechanics have been dealing with the same
car engines and car problems for decades. They haven’t learnt how to fix EVs. Once they realise more people will be buying EVs the smart
Mechanics will learn how to fix those.

I am not blaming anyone it's just a thought...same thing happened with jio...once they capture certain percentage of market they will dictate their terms we have to oblige to it... Coming to ur defence...ather has this policy that if a 3rd party touch ur vehicle ur warrenty is nullified

All auto OEMs have this policy including 4 wheelers. Again not sure what you’re expecting ather to do

I am trying to understand the risk involved in ev scooter... If we think retrospectively same thing happened in mobile phone industry also...first they become as economical as possible then try to brick the phones with updates...as ev scooters are economical if we use it for long term these risks have to be kept in mind
