Great video thank you! I took delivery of my Rexton Ultimate Sport last weekend and absolutely love it. The steering weights up a little weirdly in corners but apart from that it’s the best value 4x4 in its class by a long way. Happy motoring!

You haven’t fitted them properly, there needs to be a curve in the rubber, not hanging straight down. Correct installation will fix this

I can see what your issue is here and the blame comes back to how you have fitted them. These flaps are not designed to hang vertical from the mounting pole. There is supposed to be an arc in the mud flap at rest. This means you can have the flaps longer without dragging them, it also angles the stones back down towards the ground. Finally you made no mention of the pace you were setting and to have stones accumulating in those battery cases I could only assume you were go8ng pretty quick. Maybe slow down to around 80 instead of trying to sit on hiway speeds. Where I doubt any system will be able to be 100% infallible at that sort of pace.

Refer to previous comments as I'm not going through this again & again for people who think they know everything but don't care to read all the facts. If you had bothered to scroll through other comments, you would have also read that we were going on averages between 40km & 60km MAX! If you know anything about that road & the changes on that road, you would understand this. I don't need to sit here justifying our speeds to you when I know full well what we were doing & Rock Tamers were aware.

Called the dealer, told them the problems: nothing. Still waiting for a response. Called Ssangyong Australia: they said call the dealer.

Lovely. We went on the Encounter July 23. Two floors down, the balcony actually has double depth, so some undercover near the door, like floor 12, and then some out of the shade for the sun loungers. Level 11 is a small balcony with no cover. We always book interconnecting rooms for the four of us, so two bathrooms, two TVs, space to move around each other. That was our first balcony cruise and we enjoyed our dessert, morning tea, pre-activity time out on the balcony. On a longer cruise we did spend time in the room, just lounging. Kids were 10 and 14.

Good review, you forgot to mention that you can set the tailgate to open automatically once you walk up to the car with the key fob in pocket and the door window feature. If you hold the lock or unlock button down long enough all the door windows will drop (great for hot days) or go back up if you forget to close them after turning off the ignition.

Par boil your taters first or use tinned taters if you cant par boil and always preheat your oven or the temp will stall for too long. I also use a 9v-15v step up voltage converter on my ovens power supply for faster preheat and heat recovery times.

Does using par boiled or tiny taters make them crispy though? That's what I'm really interested to know. Cooking them in the bag always cooked them, and that's always from raw & a cold oven, but I'm keen to know how to get them crispy. We've since used a step up after filming this 👍

One tip - If you wanna buy it, Try to look on older model (2018 - 2020) with low mileage. I have 12/2019, it is practically the same car, but without software issues of new vehicles, w/o fully digital speedometer and with a bit smaller touch screen. 7speed gear box (new has 8speed), and 181 hp (new has 201). I bought it for almost half the price of new one and it only has 20 K mileage. Still had 2years warranty. Also in my opinion the previous model looks little bit better from outside, with more cute front grill which is main difference to the new one, which has larger grill. Also interiour looks little bit better in that 2019 (premium) model with brown colour than that new black. They seem to downgrade "design" in my opinion with the new display, but otherwise previous model is probably 99,9% same car as the new one.

As we've said to many replies, we had been in contact with Rock Tamers direct, spoke with them about the problems, supplied pics, videos and measurements. They acknowledged that we had everything fitted correctly and within their measurement specifications, that they issued us with a full refund. So I'm guessing the manufacturer of this product know what they are talking about, and found that it was not user error.
