Kind of a set up video I think. Not even worth wasting the time to watch.
Most people with a car under warranty that is acting up would call GM's roadside assistance.
I think he drove it (and just happened to have his video camera in the car) just to whine, in my opinion.
You didnt watch the video. I took the time to watch it a few days ago, and he was on his way back from the PRI show and had to make it back just like everyone else.
Well, the car had broken down a few times in the PAST with the identical conditons. This was his final straw, either get it lemon lawed or post it on streetfire for 4 million viewers to watch it reviel.
By the way, he called road side assistance enough they were complaining he was calling from what i could hear.....
Thats the funny thing, he was 150 miles from home, he would be charged for a car rental to get his butt home, and then have to drive 150 to get his own car once it was fixed by the dealer, and then 150 to go back home if he didnt keep driving.
So he really didnt give a crap, it was a lemon law type situation, the car had been in 3 times, this was the 4th and it should have been a closed case issue.
If you view the items under the hood that have been replace in less than 12,000 miles, you would realize that the dealers are grasping for a simple problem that could be remidied by a good qualified mechanic.
The 400 HP car could barely sustain 45 mph up a hill, and 70mph was a joke with the car floored.
He had to spend 548.00 ? out of pocket to drive a rental car while his car was under warranty AFTER THE FACT THAT THE CAR MADE IT HOME!!!!!!!!!
And then then he would get reimbursed then money later.
GM blew it on this one, it is just one out of many that got caught on tape.
