I want my life protected and I am very afraid to drive that car again, what legal action I can take or what can I do??? Thanks for all your help.

Answer 1

A 2007 Astra should still be under warranty providing it has been serviced as required .Take it back to your Holden dealer .

Answer 2

I dont think you can take legal action, take it back to the dealer to have it fixed or replaced if its under warranty. This sounds like a second hand car you have bought, did you have an inspection done before you bought the car?  If it was bought privately and the manufacturers warranty has expired then its up to you to get it fixed.

Answer 3

Warranty..........you have to give the dealership the opportunity to correct the problem before you try and do anything and if you try something now you will not win plus no one will take the case................
