I’m a long-time CR subscriber - this is very damning. I like CR’s reviews of ordinary products, but CR is very far-left at this point and they are rooting very hard for Obama, have fully drunk the “global warming” Kool-Aid, and they accordingly would be expected to go out of their way to lavish praise on Obama’s Government Motors “green” car.
For them to say that the Volt might have some problems is equivalent to saying that it might not have been such a great idea to have the Hindenburg lifted by a highly flammable gas.
You support an organization that has a record of falsifying results, rigging tests, and then throws the highest-rated product in a given test under the bus, claiming a non-existant problem (that they couldn’t recreate themselves)?
Exactly. And you can see CR was really rooting for the Volt. "We would have really liked to have loved it..."
It would be great if this fiasco would speed up GM's demise but I'm afraid they will just go back to the taxpayers for more dough.
