They informed me that the brake discs and pads would need to be replaced after just 5,000 km. My car is onl...
My 2023 Opel Corsa, which has just 22,000 km on it, had a problem with the motor control unit. The service team told me that I need to replace a part, and it’ll take around a month for it to get here. I asked for a replacement vehicle during this time, but I was informed that Opel Turkey doesn’t off...
