None for me, thanks all the same. If the UAW built it, I won’t even consider buying it—and anyway, the Japanese make better cars.
BINGO !!!
That's my thinking too. First, if NBC is pushing it, I don't believe it without independent proof. Second, every single UAW built vehicle I have had over the last 33 years has had major problems - repairs costing hundreds, even thousands of dollars. That is over and above the normal preventative maintenance. Yes, I'm one of those people that actually follow the manufacturers guidelines and get all the recommended maintenance done. Not that it has helped.
My Japanese built car is nearing 6 years and 100K miles and literally all it has had done/added/replaced: fuel, washer fluid, oil & filters, tires, radiator flushed, fuel filter, K&N air filter, one set of wiper blades. No brakes, brake fluid, belts, clutch hydraulic fluid, power steering fluid, original battery, not even light bulbs.
The UAW "American Made" vehicles I've had have never made it past even 60k miles - by that time I've sunk thousands into them for mechanical failures. Sure, I'd love to buy American, etc. but I simply cannot afford the lost $ and I need something that when I turn the key in the morning I know is going to get me to work. That has not been my experience with UAW vehicles - every single one has left me stranded on the side of the road or in a parking lot somewhere. Every single one. My Japanese car has never failed to start, no matter how cold, wet, hot, high or low altitude, sit for two weeks...
Just move to Japan will you...
