Frankly i couldn't care less about spare parts supplier issues, or other excuses for that matter, and neither should anyone else.Perhaps with the cessation of local manufacturing and the consequent loss of suppliers, there is insufficient supply of racks to replace all those which would be affected by a recall?
It's a danger to loose power steering and there should have already been an official Australian recall on this matter, period.
If Holden needed to source another supplier and pay a premium to get these updated components manufactured quickly and at the required quality, then so be it. It's the cost of doing buisiness.
To discuss excusses is missing the point that this defect is dangerous but if your happy a multinational plays statistical games with your life or the life of other road users, then i feel a little sad for your. Statistical games with peoples lives should never be the cost of doing business and such games should result in jail time.
What is needed is outrage directed to Holden but more importantly people should be reporting their power steering failures to DOTARS as a safety concerns.
If just the people on this forum who have experianced such failures reported to DOTARS, this issue would not be able to be ignored (and i'm sure Holden would magically find the needed spare parts to service the recall in a timely manner).
