I have this problem aswell. 3 week old series 2 sv6.

went to 2 dealers today and apart from the worst customer service iv ever encountered, it is booked in for the 25th as all their loaner cars are booked out till then.
2 weeks wait is just more damage that they are going to have to fix...i couldnt even get a technician to look at it to see the problem, just had to deal with the arrogant service desk assholes...

Maybe the battery will get soaked, the electrics will fry, and i will just laugh when i give holden back a broken car, that they could have prevented. (i understand they are busy, but they could have spared 1 technician for 5 mins to see what is going on)

Hey guys i have a similar problem, got a series 2 ss ute that leaks whenever it rains. The water comes out the bottom of the dash and makes a pool of water in the drivers side footwell, car now has wet carpets constantly and stinks like a wet dog. Bit dissapointed the cars not yet 3 months old , its booked in at holden next week hope things get sorted.

Keep an eye on that. I've had the driver's seat replaced twice. Started out with a squeak.

Don't even bother taking it up with Holden Customer care - from my experience, they're a pack of complete no-hopers. Take it straight back to the dealer and make sure they deal with the fkn issue. That's just fkn retarded!
sounds like you may seen some of the people that work at Holden here in Adelaide, PMSL.

oh bugger me too

it appears i am not the only one here..
i too have just dropped my new ssv ute off at the dealer, i had it leaking on passenger side behind seat, appeared to be coming in from around the rear window or seals, i was kinda lucky i noticed it very early, and was able to pull the rubber grommet out that the battery has near it for its overflow to drain all the water, i am not expecting this vehicle back for at least a week, as i have told them not only do i expect it repaired but they will be replacing the carpet and underlay. if you are not happy with the service they give you take it up with the accc, the good news is if anyone buys anything from now on, theyhave changed to rules and you can actually ask for a replacement or complete refund. unfortunately i got mine 1 week before chrismas so i just have to go through the motions, until they do not deliver satisfaction only then can i act.
