Got a link to your information
Actually 09SS you are part correct and part wrong, from what I am told.
Even though Obama and his "Czars" are telling everyone they do not want to interfere with the daily operation of GM.....they must give their approval on expeditures over a predetermined amount. The Czars say, with this requirement, they can protect the citizens investment in GM. Therefore on every major part order, GM must submit costs to someone in the Government. You know our federal government is very efficient....right?
SO MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, your complaint should be issued to the President.....not GM.

Actually I don't watch Fox News.....but thanks for the tip !!! It does seem however, like a typical comment from someone that would attempt to turn information into a contested political arguement......or is it just "sours grapes"
.
Anyway the info came from a former GM Desert Proving Ground employee who would knowledge of such activity (which, by the way, is now formally closed, with operations now at the new facility inside the Yuma Military Proving Ground).

Also on a side note I heard that Chrysler is no longer doing lifetime powertrain warrenties it is now 5 years/100k. Apperently gov. officials did surveys ect. and found that people wanted the 5yr/100k. True storyfrom what I am told. so apperently people according to the gov. prefer a 5yr over life time. lol

Ya I knew the lifetime was not transferable, and was assuming the 5yr/100k would be the same as the old. Good to hear it is transferable. I guess if I buy a car I plan on keeping it for more then 5 yrs so a lifetime would be right up my alley.
