    Self start of destiny prome stop working sometimes
    I have purchased Hero Destiniy Prime in May 2024. In July self start was not workinh properly. The workshop recharge the battery and service done (paid). In Oct-Nov 2024 once again the self start not working, display not working, speedometer not working and kick start working like second hand vehicle. the workshop again taken it for service (paid) with fault in battery which have been under process of exchange with new battery due to within waranty period. the exchange process takes almost one week, till then the second hand battery is being used. one more thing there is very less space under the seat, even putting helmet under the seat crating problem with bulb lightening inside when vehicle is on rest. it drain the battery charge while rest which is also one reason for self start not working in morning.
