My VF has done 109,000 km and has had every oil change required by Holden manual. I had one cylinder misfiring and heard a rattle in the engine this November just gone and took it to my mechanic. He diagnosed a broken roller on camshaft. I then rang my local Holden dealer and had to get the car towed to them for their diagnosis. A long story short is that they are Denying any financial assistance in any warranty claim at all because they weren’t allowed to do the diagnosis themselves. They actually said to me that I have no basis for a claim because I can’t prove that my mechanic DID NOT cause the problem with the camshaft .
I have taken it to fair trading and Holden are still denying any further dealings with me. I have now written to NCAT to take it to a tribunal. yes I do realise the motor is out of its 100,000 km warranty period but a camshaft is a major part of the motor!! I am wondering what anyone on this just Commadores forum thinks about this? Any similar dealings through fair trading or NCAT ? tia
