Protesting on this forum will have little effect, but if we make a concerted effort at a group protest with a consistent message to all the state consumer affairs bodies and to Holden, (and HSV in some cases), we may be able to make some sort of impact.
At the very least, we can hopefully generate enough interest to drown them in a sea of emails letting them know of our dissatisfaction.
If it attracts some media attention - even better.
These email addresses are a good starting point:
[email protected];
[email protected]
Let's all ensure we continually harass our relevant dealers as well.
If we don't get a response, I am planning to escalate directly to the personal email addresses of individuals within senior management in both organisations. (And will publish their email addresses here for others to do the same.)
For further escalation:
NSW - NCAT
http://www.ncat.nsw.gov.au/
VIC - VCAT
https://www.vcat.vic.gov.au/
Let's add all the other relevant state bodies as well.
Despite the cessation of local manufacturing, the Holden brand is still planned to continue in Australia and abandoning support for the last of the line of local products is not a good marketing strategy to move forward on.
