Thought I would purchase a new vehicle from Holden, bad move, non-existent customer support.
1st diff replaced under warranty at 75,000 kilometers(40,000miles), 2nd diff failed at 150,000 kms(less than 100k miles).
Holden workshop unable to do even basic maintenance like adjust handbrake .
After 1st diff replaced, which took them 2weeks , rear brakes collapsed on rotors driving out of workshop.
3 rd diff has just failed ,took this to, allegedly,the best drivetrain specialists in Auckland NZ, Steelie Gears who charged me $2800NZ to repair and upgrade, 1 month out of warranty failed due to their inability to correctly fit front seal and rear gasket.
So ,major fail Holden ,having been a lifetime fan of Holden vehicles(Australian GM for those of you in the US) now I have no alternative but to purchase Nissan or Toyota.
One bouquet, the motor is bulletproof tho` that is probably because it is built by Buick.
