I hate those commercials.

They are on constantly, cable and airwaves.

They should stop and get a new shtick.............

The only thing lacking in those commercials is “ Hurry up and buy one before the next recall”.

Friend swore never to buy a GM product after the government bailout stiffed bond holders, many of whom were elderly. However, he was seduced by the new Corvette Stingray and bought a 2015 Z-51, 2LT model after reading numerous positive reviews. The upside is he loves the car’s performance but there are two irritating issues that can not be fixed and are ignored by Chevrolet: loud squeaky brakes and an automatic transmission that hesitates between first and second on the initial shift after the car has been sitting. The car has been to the dealer 3-4 times under warranty but the problem persists. In reading the Corvette Forum, he found that this was a fairly common problem although the dealership acts as if this is unique to him. My wife wanted me to consider a Chevy Traverse but based on his treatment and problems we’ll be getting another Honda or Toyota. How can you trust a company that won’t stand behind its’ top or certainly most visible product?

Aaarrgghhh. AGREED! These commercials, although muted here, are really annoying, repetitive crap. Wholly cheesy.
Almost makes a fella miss the old "fawning models" meme. d;^)

Government Motors. **spit**

Right. They get dumber and dumber.

AS IF I’m going to choose a car based on what some adolescent morons SAY, who probably can’t even conceive of how the internal combustion engine works.

My favorite (meaning the stupidest) is the Subaru commercials... After about a century of perfecting auto engineering on this planet, Subaru thinks grown, rational adults will select a car because some clown announcer (who over pronounces all his words) says, ‘LOVE ... it’s what makes a Subaru a Subaru”. Really?

“Love’ won’t get your a(* out of a jam on the HWY and it won’t take the place of solid engineering, performance, dependability, resale value, etc. or anything ELSE that matters about making a car selection. But, like everything ELSE, young people regard facts as totally incidental and know NOTHING about substance, logic or value for money. For THEM-it’s all about EMOTION.
