My current vehicle has 75,000 miles and has been having a few issues lately. I am seriously thinking it’s time to sell and replace. I prefer to drive it into the ground as they say, hold on for another 75,000 miles, but if I take the leap it will not, EVER be a Government Motors vehicle.
1. The wiper arms constantly came loose from the spindles. I had to keep tightening the set screw on them but it would come loose again. Nothing I did would keep those damn things locked onto the spindle.
2. The headlights would turn off for no reason. The dealer had the car for a week and replaced the multi-function turn signal arm at a cost of about $900. Less than a year later the same problem with the headlights began again. The only way I could get them to stay on would be to tilt the steering wheel to it's full up position. Try driving a car with the tilt wheel in that position.
3. The door locks constantly played with themselves. Clicking and clicking over and over again while driving. They would also click constantly even while the car was garaged all night. I'd come in in the morning and the battery would be dead because the locks activating would keep the interior lights turned on and drain the battery. Numerous visits to the dealer could never resolve this situation.
On New Years Day 2011 I dumped the miserable thing and bought a Ford F150. I will never go back to Government Motors.
Stopped buying American in the 70 s when it started turning out products that were produced to break to keep itself in business
I saw the junk and how it performed
Too bad others didnt do the same and crush the unions that did this to those companies and the city that cradled them
Government takeover made its trajectory intensify
Just my observation
Same will happen to medicine
Don’t just blame their boy Obama
I buy only from one company and it is not American too bad
Though ford ( not taken over) makes a nice truck. It’s costomers would not put up with an inferior product
