Yes now I have paired to mobile phones with the BT. and not both of us are using this features with ease.
My service is due next month.
But sad to inform that some bugger a reckless driver hit my FIGO from the front while it was parked at home yesterday. When we heard the sound we came out to find it out by that time he has sped away.
Damage is the dent in the bonnet and the Bumper![[cry]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Cry.gif "Cry [cry]")

This is bad.
Go to service center and do claim insurance.

As sad it is to know such a thing happened, it is annoying and frustrating that you could not get hold of that Moron. If caught, may be you could have got something out that could share your expense.
Even parked vehicles are not spared anymore!! This is so ridiculous.
Why don't you post a snap of the dent so that people here can suggest your options.

the dent is not big one on the bonnet, it small one. So not going for insurance claim and body work. At least at the dent place the paint has not peeled off.
Had it been other car the bumper would have defiantely gave way and would have greatly damaged the vehicle. This shows that the body of car is sturdy enough to withstand the crash.
Yes people these days dont even spare parked vehicles.

On last tuesday I went to Rajasthan (Tijara) and the few things I noticed:
1. The car was drifting towards left
2. While driving over the mud, the air pressure beneth the car was such that it appeared that a dust strom is taking place
and now we come to mileage. It gave me just 10 KPL on the highway and more so the DTE figure was also wrong. It showed me 30 KM drive left with the petrol but I ended up with the fuel just covering 5 KM distance.![[surprise]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Surprise.gif "Surprise [surprise]")

For car drifting left, do wheel alignment. Also, i read earlier Figos had this problem with some tyre brand, and thats why they have changed it.
Yes, the figo's FE seems to be on lower side.

Regarding the drifting problem , does your Figo run on Apollo tyres?? Some Apollo tyres have this problem , it was there in my Safari with the old tyres but now with the new tyres the problem seems to have gone! And also as RSM mentioned check your wheel align ment at a good reputed tyre dealer because most of the A.S.S don do the alignment correctly and the problem still persists even after the alignment is done by A.S.S!
And regarding the dust storm you mentioned , most of the modern cars come with the exhausts facing downwards , so when you accelerate in the mud it creates a huge dust storm behind , have done this with my Verna on a dusty road!![[:D]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Big%20Smile.gif "Big Smile [:D]")
And then the FE , man its very low in a highway! And so did you end up running out of fuel??

Well then in that case check your wheel alignment at an outside reputed tyre dealer. If the problem persists even after that then wait for the reply from them.
And how did you get to notice the dust storm forming at the center of the car , when someone else drove your car??
And did you write to them about your low FE also??
