If you ever wondered how Rob Ford could have been elected Mayor, this is his base.

You do realize that GM would not be issuing these recalls if it was not trying to divert and save face of a problem that actually killed people while they knew about and also purposely avoided right? Are you trying to sidetrack us even further with your fanboyish ways?

You also do know that your example of airbags…

Those numbers don't relate to each other... You're comparing 20.5 million total GM recalls to 10.5 million recalls due solely to Takata airbags (of which the Cruze makes up 0.3%)

Why would you not rip a car company to shreds for knowing an issue that compromised safety existed and do nothing to fix it? Why would you not rip a car company to shreds after recalling over 20 million vehicles, the majority huge safety issue? Sure every major manufacturer have had recalls, many serious, but to this…

GM deserves to be ripped to shreds in the most literal way because of the people they've killed and the disgustingly low quality products they've produced

20.5 million from one manufactuere vs 10.5 from 6.

No, it's that they didn't recall cars when they should have. And GM has had questionable reliability / build quality since I can remember, now they're recalling everything. While they should be recalling it, it's the fact that they -have- to recall so much.

It goes from being one terrible, terrible thing. To…

It feels to me though that they're only now recalling these cars, because of the negative publicity, even though they've probably known for a while these cars had issues.

Yeah, but hasn't GM been recalling way-beyond just airbags.

Where you also defending Toyota this furiously when media circus was on them for half year intensively? Arguably about problem that never was as big as what we are seeing now.

So then...why don't any of the other manufacturers seem to be going through this much shit? Sure there's been some big recalls from companies like Ford, but it doesn't seem like they've gone to this extent. I mean, we're in the millions at this point.

They got publicly shamed for knowing about a life-threatening problem and not fixing it. Now they are starting to fix all the other issues they have known about but weren't planning on fixing to avoid similar embarrassment in the future.

I'm legitimately beginning to worry that GM will recall my car.

AE86. The more it breaks from wear and tear, the more difficult it is to master, the more qualified a driver you become.

Ew.

Just one word: FUGLY.
