OK I like it, but its only 1,400 not 14,000 (title prob). The most interesting thing I thought was poss. plan for a PiP-type plug_in (less EV miles).
It affects more than the Cobalt, and its just a spring that has been redesigned (longer now) that is being replaced.
The ignition switch fiasco shows GM hasn't changed. I can't put the whole blame on Barra, she had this dropped in her lap. The BOD culture is: keep the customer in the dark for 10 years, let the next CEO deal with the deaths and injuries. The more GM tries to change, the more they stay the same. DBCassidy
Just like most big public held companies, not just GM. Profit is all that counts. This is not a reflection on the entire company, I am sure GM has some of the best talent in the industry. Its the BOD who can care less, about product and safety vs. cost.
And, the TEA PARTY says that we should eliminate NEW and "business choking" regulations. Most of them are owners of Corporate America, the one who own the "WAGE SLAVES." All of them should live in West Virginia, reopen the Big Branch Mine, work there and drink the water there.
They can also go to Danville, VA, and drink from the Dan River that Duke Energy laced with arsenic from their coal ash spill, after having voted for their former Duke Energy executive Governor.
orenji, If I owned one of the "recalled cars," I would temporarily fox the problem by running a jumper between the ON wire and the ACC wire on the harness. While you can't use the accessory setting on the switch, the car will NOT go out of the ON position disabling the power brakes, power steering and the air bags. A good emergency switch might be for the wire that goes to the fuel pump relay. All RACE CARS are required to have them. And, it can be a good anti-theft measure.
