Captivaet Captiva - Chevrolet - colinlitch

Hi

I am at my wits end.

I have been driving for over 30 years. The car is 2 years old and with 30000 miles on it but the car suddenly stopped 3 months ago with a faulty clutch.

There are many identical incidences of this on the internet with this particular model. This situation is also an identical situation to that of 3 years ago with the same model of car with similar miles and age. In that incident Chevrolet took it upon themselves to reimburse over 1/2.


On this recent occasion I paid for all of it up to £2500 as Chevrolet have pulled out of Europe and no one wants to know. Also, it is easy to blame the driver. I took it on the chin, moved on with my life, HOWEVER, within 6 weeks it has happened again. No one wants to take responsibility. I do not know what to do.

Please help.

Kind regards

Colin

When GM decided to pull Chevrolet out of Europe, they pledged that Opel/Vauxhall would take over servicing and warranty issues.

If you've paid £2,500 to rectify it and it's happened again - your recourse is against the workshop that repaired it and took your money.
