GM customers just like going to see their dealer/salesman. Once i get to know the service people on a first name basis it is time for me to buy a different brand of vehicle.
The SS was recalled for what? The pool of gasoline under it in the picture? ;-)
Now the circle is complete!
It's funny to see GM commercials boasting quality and innovation on television. Although I don't entirely equate recalls as entirely qualitative, it's obvious GM has no control over its suppliers, QA, QC and assembly line. Too many new changes for a company that was making crap not too long ago. I think their problem is going to get worse and taxpayers are going to have to donate more cash to these suckers.
