‘There may be an even more sleezy reason for GM’s willingness to recall vehicles with low costs of repairs. It appears that the extra showroom traffic that is driven by the recalls can lead to increased sales for GM. GM initially realized this when they first called in Chevy Cobalts after delaying the ignition switch recall for years. To compensate owners of the recalled cars, GM offered $500 towards a brand spanking new GM vehicle.’
Granted its tacky but...who in their right mind would buy another GM product? Its sort of a double whammy, your trade (yet unfixed) is worth little, youre in deeper debt than when you came in for a longer period and its pretty likely your new vehicle is going to have problems/high cost of ownership just like the one you currently own. I just dont see the draw...
I agree and don’t see the draw either. If I owned one of those vehicles I sure wouldn’t turn around and buy another GM product.
