Hi
I have just swapped my Nissan Leaf for an MG4. Very similar price point, similar specs. I think I was expecting similar but slightly better from the MG4.
I hate it! And I'm stuck with it now.
Firstly, it slammed the brakes on for me thinking I was going to have a collision with a car that was indicating and turning off. This then almost caused the car behind me to crash. It could have been a disaster. I now live in fear that it will do this again. I try to remember to turn the "front collision assist" off every time I go anywhere but I'm at a loss as to why you can't just turn it off forever?
Secondly, why on earth does it not tell you what the outside temperature is? I've had some real old bangers and I have never had a car that doesn't tell you the temperature.
Thirdly. Changing DAB radio stations is a pain.. it doesn't seem to allow you to choose your favourites and have them out in a list.. like every other car I have owned.
Fourthly, it's a PAIN that it knows best with lane assist. Sometimes if there are imperfections in the roads it thinks I've veered towards the central reservation. It's a pain.
Also I'm very used to 1 pedal drive. The leaf had "e-pedal" and it had a switch to turn it on, so I just left it on. Why won't this car let me keep it on??? It turns off every time you go in to P mode. And sometimes it doesn't let me turn it on at all as it says the battery is too low (not sure why battery level would affect it??) one time it said this and the battery was literally 100%. It seems to basically be the cars choice whether I use one pedal mode or not...
Is there any way I can rectify all this stuff? I'm paying a big chunk of my wages every month to drive this car and it's not fun..I'm missing my leaf. It wasn't the coolest car but it was so easy and intuitive to use.
I like the look of my MG4 but it's not really to look at, it's to drive... And I hate driving it at the minute ?
