Had the car booked in for its first service under my custodianship today.

While I am not a fan of stealerships, I thought I would send it to my local Holden dealer for the first one.

After having given its usual weekly wash yesterday, I was very pissed off to see the car covered from head to toe with spots, streaks and smears at pick up.

Showed it to the service manager who agreed that it wasn't acceptable but said he couldn't do anything about it.

Me: How can you let a customer car leave in this condition.

Him: We don't have time to check them.

If something this obvious goes through to the keeper, what else have they missed ? Hope they had enough time to do the mechanical work properly.

Useless fkn cnts. No respect for the people that pay their wages.

DP at a Holden dealer North of the City will be getting a phone call tomorrow.

Do you have a local mechanic you use mate before this service taking it to the dealer? Don't worry had my car serviced at Metros and Phoenix (bought it there) while still under warranty and had issues as well. Care factor is fairly low. Metros they used to wash it though.
Took mine to Auto Bahn in Balcatta last time first non dealer service, they weren't bad but open to good local recommendations, used to live in Morley till recently.

I was taking the VS to Aldo @ AD Diffs in Balcatta who was good.

Next service will be back to him. He doesn't know I got rid of the VS and bought this yet. I'll go see him some time before the next service is due.

I only took it to Holden for the first one, just to get them to run their eye over it and make sure any recalls had been done.

Interestingly it has never had any warranty or recall work required.
