    if chevy sells a few hundred units per month. they probably require maintenance parts but what about repair necessitated spare parts?

    My brother drives a 2006 Optra wagon and a 2011 Aveo sedan (both have been out of production for several years), he still has it serviced at Chevrolet Greenhills, so far no issues with parts/ after-sales.
    For DIY repairs/replacement he gets his parts from Lightning/Thunder, GM OptraPH(GM Korea models), and one more store in Banawe, QC.

Look at Isuzu, they were too proud before with their Alterra, singmahal or mas mahal pa sa previous gen Monteros and Forts. so hayun nilangaw. now Isuzu learned their lesson, their MUX is selling like hotcakes given the intense competition of these car segments.

    how come Chevy still thinks they are BMW or Benz or whatever they think they look they are, just because they're American company.

    The trailblazer can be a durable vehicle pero kung ang news na nagsasara mga planta nila, eh durability almost equates to parts availability. and then mahal pa acquisition cost. talong-talo talaga.

    sometimes, in business you have to go out from you cozy offices and see what's really happening outside sa demographic na binebentahan mo. eh hindi ko alam kung anong mundo ginagalawan ng mga Chevy executives dito. are they in denial ba or what? or are they satisfied with the sales numbers, if it's the latter then so be it. basta ako i will not be part of that statistic.
    normal lang magsara ng planta sa dami ba naman nilang planta

    Since the Aveo and Optra were both Thai-assembled models, the parts are either from Thailand or Korea.
    Thai and Korean parts are quite affordable.

    It's priced higher in the casa which is the case for most other cars.

    Of course GM Korea models no longer sell in high numbers here, Chevrolet's volume sellers here happen to be the Colorado and Trailblazer which come from Thailand.
