Government Motors seems to have had more than their share of quality control issues since the Dems bailed them out.
gm bailout - 20 million recalls - mission accomplished. /s
GM seems to have a lot of firmware problems.
infirm-ware
You don't "recalibrate" software.
You replace software with a new version that hopefully has fewer bugs than what it's replacing. /facepalm
Ahhh, the old 2 wheel drive to 4 wheel drive to no wheel drive trick :)
A buddy just bought a new Silverado 4X4, going to have some fun with this if he comes over tomorrow, he's been bragging too much on how it's a better truck than my F 150 4X4.
Wow, just for software? I always wondered why they make the choices they make, especially with regards to being able to update things. Maybe Tesla has it right - wifi in every car. Updates delivered as needed when needed. Adjustments to just about everything from suspension to powertrain can be controlled (perhaps they can even control the car). No “recalls” just automatic downloading of patches and the occasional reboot when the car is plugged in.
What, we can’t just download an upgrade to our cars?
I’ve had GM all my life...trust me I LOVE my new Honda...didn’t ever look at a GM offering...no regrets.
Gubmint Motors. Now they want to take out your appendix.
Is this what passes for good writing these days?
Shifting into neural while on the highway in cruise control might be interesting. Think the controller is smart enough to disable cruise of not in drive? Or would it ask for more throttle since speed is coming down? How long to hit the rev limiter, a second or two?
Recalibrate? Seems more like they need to get folks who know what they're doing when it comes time to write the firmware/software that controls the vehicles.
Just the quality of a UAW-owned and government-backed company one would expect.
I grew up being a huge GM guy.
My last GM was a 1980 Z-28.
As a teen I owned TWO Z-28’s the ‘80 and a ‘78.
Yea I understand those cars limitations but that is besides the point, at the time they were both pretty sweet.
As a TEENAGER I was able to own TWO real nice Chevy Z-28’s.
Just read about the NEW 2015 Z-28 in car and Driver.
it’s going for something like 70-80 grand$$.
Times have changed....looks like this ex-teen has seen his last Z-28.
