RE: Vauxhall revokes lifetime warranty

Recommended Posts

Interesting strategic shift, when Kia offer 7 years and most other Asian brands have 5 years cover that Vauxhall have gone back to the old standard of 3y60k.

I guess the sub-text to this is that Vauxhall has become almost entirely fleet-focused, and these customers aren't prepared to pay more for longer cover as it has a negligable effect on the three year RV figures.

Also, the percentage of buyers using finance, and especially PCP penetration, quoted in the article are lower than what I understand is the industry average, so it suggests that private Vauxhall buyers are probably more likely to make use of a longer warranty than those buying a Hyundai...

So even the latest Corsa is still suffering from steering wheels faults. Deary me.

We've had Vauxhalls put back on our company car list, can only think this is awful news that will involve me spending far too long in the garage waiting for a mechanic to polish a turd. 

 

Not a fan, think walking is better.
