Now in its fifth season, the Watchdog Podcast has returned, with Maddocks Partner and series host Shaun Temby providing an overview of the dismissal of a claim brought against General Motors Holden Australia NSC Pty Ltd by a number of its dealers (and franchisees) arising out of General Motors Company’s decision in 2020 to shut down the Holden brand.

The episode explores the judgment in the much-publicised class action, and how it’s another example of automotive dealers (unsuccessfully) raising various allegations to try to get a court to look beyond the express terms of their Dealer Agreements.
