    Holden to take over Servicing/Warranties October 1st

    An extract of an email I received earlier today.

    Hi Peter,

    I can now advise officially that participating Holden dealers around Australia will be able to service Opel vehicles as of October 1st, 2013.

    All Opel customers will be mailed this information from tomorrow, in addition to the information appearing on www.opel-australia.com.au with a link to locate participating Holden dealers.

    We do still have 4 operational Opel dealers for another few weeks, who can still service Opels - they are also listed online.


    Any further questions I can forward on

    Cheers

    A direct link to the list of Holden dealers that can do the servicing.

    Pretty much it's any Holden dealership, this list is quite long.

    Double check your nearest or preferred dealer just in case they aren't listed

    That's some good news for existing and future owners.

    Some certainty and ongoing support will definitely help resale values.

    Saw an OPC Astra while I was at lunch, sounded pretty good when giving some beans.

    Thanks for the tag poita.

    I rang up the Opel australia number, apparently they have not got the official brief yet.

    I also rang up the specific dealership I purchased the car from that also sells Kia and Ford and has 1 service center for all their brands. They are still happy to honor the vourchers they provided me on the service which includes 3 x supplementel oil change for $29 (they'd just order the parts from holden). Other stuff in the vouchers are discounts on other services or parts, free punture repairs, free check up, etc.

    You sound like upper management. Just spoke with my manager and he knows nothing either, all in good time i guess.
