Hi,
1. when I bought my Chevrolet Optra 1.6, little did I know about the quality of the Car. After a mere less than 5 years, the car started rusting from everywhere. from wheels to the doors & hood. After showing it at the chevrolet service station, they inform me they have no idea of why its catching rust. They still say, it may be because of water used to wash it is salty. I bought maruti Alto a month before the optra and it is still fine &washed with the same water and there is no problem of rusting from anyside of the car. It appears that material used for the body is much inferior that Maruti Alto bought at 1/3 price. I enquired if there is anyway of protecting the car as there are two big holes on the passesnger side door. They have no idea. If this is the state of th GM produced Car, I'm very disappointed in them and needless to say, it doesn't leave a good impression of the car and the brand among my professional & social group.
2. Also, it appears there is a scarcity of Spare Parts. My driver side Power window isn't working and they candidly inform me they dont have the part. I checked it at various places but of no avail.
