Hey guys, made a new account just to post here. Had this happen to my VF Evoke first whilst making a sharp turn to park at uni, and since has happened a few times. Have photo and video evidence of the error on my dash for when I eventually need to wrestle with a dealer to get this fixed.
I spoke to HCC and, just as expected, I had a lady that told me that she couldn't do anything, that she couldn't find a recall or customer campaign number for the issue and when I explained to her that this very issue was being recalled in America, she told me "Well, that's America, their cars are completely different and every car is individual". Knew once that came out of her mouth, our conversation clearly wasn't going to go anywhere; very frustrating.
Spoke to the dealer I purchased the car from at the end of November 2017 (Brighton Holden, VIC), the tech denied ever knowing of this issue (which seeing now all you guys have the very same issue is hard to believe) and told me I'd need to get the car in for a diagnostic check. I tried explaining that the error disappears and that it was unlikely they'd find anything, leading me to a slap of $150 for no reason, but as expected, they were very unhelpful and short.
I found a Facebook post of an individual that had even gone to the very dealer I got the car from and had his rack replaced by Holden out of warranty, so it's very frustrating they won't acknowledge it is even a known issue when I probe them.
I'm pretty stressed thinking of how I'm going to get this resolved when literally everyone I contact is working against me. Are there any dealers around the Victorian Brighton one people would recommend, or something I should do? As mentioned before I'm a uni student and I can't afford to pay the $150 to get this rolling if there's a chance they're going to turn me away. I also don't exactly want to leave my car in a state where it's ready to throw me into a curb or wall whenever it feels like it.
Here's the photo of the error if anyone would like to use it themselves
