My friend purchased a JBL SB 580 Music system from Reliance Digital store on 15th of December. This was a wedding gift to me for my wedding which was on 24th of December.

I scheduled an installation in the 2nd week of Jan 2025 once I settled after wedding. On the day of installation itself, the speakers make a cracking sound. JBL said they couldn’t replace the product as theor policy says that replacements are possible onli within 7 days FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. This by itself is an unreasonable policy.


After they got my speaker repaired, it worked for about 4-5 months. Not the speaker won’t turn on, their technician says there is an issue with the motherboard. They will get it repaired.


A brand new product has broken down twice. Once, on the day of installation itself, secont time, 5 months from then.


They convinced me that under no circumstances they can give me a replacement. I agreed but said to give me 1 year extension of warranty as we all know the product itself is defective. They said they will get back to me. The next day, they call me to say they are giving 1 month of warranty extension.

This is pure exploitation of the consumer and a totally unacceptable solution.
 
Hello @OmkarDange

Before proceeding further, we recommend that you first send an email to the customer care department of the JBL Harman, clearly outlining your concerns and requesting to provide proper solution. This step not only gives the company a chance to address the issue but also helps strengthen your case if you decide to file a complaint with the Consumer Forum later.

Please wait for a reasonable time for their response. If they do not respond or fail to resolve the matter satisfactorily, feel free to reach out to us again. When you do, kindly include a copy of your email to them and any response (if received), so we can guide you on the next steps.

Best regards,
Thanks
