    Holden dealer nightmare

    Finally bit the bullet today and booked my a/m headlight to get repaired at Suttons Chullora (the parkers weren't working). These are the events that followed after I paid $210 and picked it up 5 hours later:

    - I noticed the lights were left on as it was parked on the premises.
    - Seemed like all the parkers were working
    - Took it home and as it got darker, noticed that there was one parker in each headlight that wasn't working. I thought they probably popped out of place. No big deal, I can do that myself.
    - Proceeded to remove the headlights and noticed that not only were the parkers not in their holes and that there wasn't even a globe in but the main beam housing on the passenger headlight was completely broken (it was literally shaking). I am like WTF???
    - In addition to that, the foam bits that sit behind the bumper weren't even replaced, they're probably still sitting in their workshop.

    I called them up but the guy has yet to return my call. Anything I should be aware of before I take it further? Needless to say I am completely pissed off right now.

    no only the dealers.

    everytime after someone else touched my car, there's a problem left to me.

    1,someone did not connect my rear driver side light, that's dangerous!
    2,Obrien did not connect the water pipe of the windscreen washer.
    .....

    I do not know why people do not do their job right these days?????

    I will worry about whatever next time!
    where and who to go next time!

    wish you good luck with your headlight.

    My concern is that they may deny responsibility.

    Then again, assuming they accept responsibility, I doubt they will be able to replace the headlight, as it is a/m angeleyes. What happens in this case?
