<p><p>However, almost eight hours later <b>at 7.40pm on the same night, the car could not start.</b></p>
<p>&#8220;On 18 October, I took my car to the Perodua service centre in Segamat and the mechanic there informed me that my engine was broken.</p>
<p><b>&#8220;On the same day, I requested for a replacement for a new car</b> and was told to wait for a decision from Perodua&#8217;s headquarters, <b></b>which could take two weeks to a month,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>Sure enough, about three weeks later, on 9 November, Nagakanni said she received a call from the Perodua headquarters.</p>
<p>&#8220;Customer sales executive Sufian said <b>from their early investigation, the car&#8217;s engine was damaged by a foreign object, such as sugar,</b> and he said that the substance was not used by the manufacturer,&#8221; she recalled.</p>
<p>Nagakanni said she had not brought any<b>&nbsp;food or drinks into the car within the eight hours she had it﻿</b>, nor did she have any reason to tamper with the engine.<b></b></p>

<p><b>&#8220;It&#8217;s been over two months, but I still haven&#8217;t gotten a response or resolution [from Perodua],&#8221;</b>&nbsp;she claimed.</p>
