Hi guys,
Recently I purchased a used car from a used car dealer which has >160,000kms.
I took it for a service at the official dealership yesterday and they told me the rear brake pads were worn (less than 2mm left) and needs to be replaced. They told me I could go back to the dealer where I purchased the car from to get them to replace it as I am covered under the 1 month/1000km statuary warranty.
I did some research online and found that there is indeed a 1 month statutory warranty for used cars >10years/160,000kms (https://www.sbs.com.au/news/queensland-cracks-down-on-dodgy-…) but this is not shown on the QLD government's website which has not been updated for almost 2 years.
Do you guys reckon I could get the dealer to replace the brake pads and what is the best way to get them to do it?
Well that doesn't really say anything. You need a link from a government agency, not a journalist. There's no mention of 1 month on that article.
