I want to show my support for an American car make, but I don't want to get hosed in the process.
Anyone else concerned about the same thing?
For years I have wondered why companies like GM don't try to fight the perception that their vehicle are unreliable, by doing things like increasing warranty periods, miles or offering free service.
Anyways -- I would love to hear your guys thoughts.

No worries, my friend. It will be reliable....no prob. If you are concerned that there will be problems, I'm sure the fact that there is a 4 (or is it 5 year?) 100,000 mile warranty now. You know...I think it's a 4 year bumper to bumper and 5 year for powertrain.
Regardless, GM execs drive these vehicles putting thousands of miles on them TRYING to find flaws...and they have to report back with those flaws. We were told that recently, after driving several Chevy vehicles, it was getting more and more difficult finding flaws. The reliability is getting better....MUCH better.
I am not worried ONE BIT. And, I know that if something does break, I'll be covered from GM. First year run vehicle...might be a problem or two...but I'm not worried at all.
