Yes, this sucks and gives American made cars in general a bad name.

Build American marketed cars in America. I would think the American car companies would start to get this by now.

Once the playing field is leveled you'll start seeing this again. Until then, things will continue to be built overseas.

trans probs? hmm I must be a lucky M6 owner. My trans works great(knock on wood)

Foreign built "american" products are a direct result of a weakened economy. To stay a-float, a business must find cheaper resources.

I feel bad for someone in that situation. I mean to pay so much money for a car and have something like that happen would be a terrible feeling.

For the record, that's my car in the YouTube video. As you can imagine, it's been a nightmare. It's the weak spot in an otherwise stellar car. I'm considering a Camaro as a replacement as I really want to stick with American. We'll see what happens.
