I purchased a 1080 Cadillac Fleetwood Brogham.

Absolutely magnificently beautiful -- and comfortable.

Problem was: It could barely make it up a hill -- and the left rear door would not open except when I called in three "deck apes" to help me pull on the the handle. And, knobs started to fall off after a year or so, etc, etc.

That 30K piece of junk was made on a Friday afternoon during Deer Season!

Never, ever again !!! Never !!!

and the first Hondas to come to the US were rust buckets. its nuts to judge what GM is producing today based on your issue with a car 25 years ago.

We had a 68 Fleetwood Brogham. Best vehicle I ever owned. Fast, comfortable, and quiet. Just like today's Mercedes.

Well, that's your problem. Vehicles made in the Dark Ages are legendary for quality control issues. ;)
