hey all,
i got a bit of a weird one, the other day while driving along the highway @ 100kph with a surfboard tied to the roof rakes with occy straps. all of a sudden the board is flying though the car and come smashing down on the road.( surfboard is now toast)
the reason for this is that the roof rakes along with the black plastic strip on the roof all come flying off.
my question is has this every happened to anyone else.
do you think holden should fix it. they were genuine holden racks. with only one surfboard fitted
i guy at the dealer said he doesnt know what holden will do because they werent fitted at the dealer, but how hard can it be, put them in the holes and turn the key and whent he key is turned far enough the key come out. they are removal roof rakes so it doesnt make sense if holden wants you to return to have them fitted or removed.
what do u think they should be responsible for. i think repair of the surfboard is acceptable...
the car and rakes are under warranty.
