Another two Astra convertible roof latch sets this week need re-engineering thanks to our friends in Brisbane
These latches come from a so called "backyard operator in the Brisbane suburbs" is how one of new our customers put it.
So there are now more Questions are now being asked?
Are
these machinists Australia qualified as they advertise parts
manufactured in Brisbane yet parts are not machined to Australian
standards or Australian Quality Assurance standards
This
is highly evident in the machining and manufacuring processes used
Moreover the two Astras we inspected this week were suffering the effects
of galvanic corrosion
In
general terms galvanic corrosion is caused by clamping or securing
dissimular materials together the result is an increase in the amount of
corrosion or rate of corrosion overtime
As
the Aluminimum blocks had not been treated for corrorion they were just
raw Aluminimum. These Astra convertibles roof had been butchered they were
showing a signifigant amount of Galvanic Corrosion or in layman terms
RUST which over time will spread to the other parts on the car
We
are intrested in talking to other customers that have purchased Astra
Roof Latches from the "backyard operator in the Brisbane suburbs" just
to keep customers informed.
All the aluminimum parts supplied by ALNO Product Services are protected against corrosion
