I would venture to say this site is frequented by avid car fans. Your average buyer doesn't take the time to do this much research. They won't consider these "minor" issues. It will not take that many of these incidents to change public opinion, which is already negative towards GM. I just don't see that GM gets it.
I agree. Most Chevy fans and GM fans won't go anywhere. GM needs to convince foreign car buyers to take a look. GM needs to build a product the public believes in. If they can't do that they won't survive.
