Does anyone remember the ford pinto? It could erupt into a fireball if rear ended just right. How about the explorer tire problem that could blow out (due to improper inflation specs) and cause a rollover. Or the corvair. No need to go there. Did their manufacturer offer to buy them back? No way. They just endured the class action lawsuits because it was the cheapest business option. That's the way the auto manufacturers used to think.

Give me a break. We are driving one of the most unsafe vehicles on the road. Every time we strap in, we put our life (and the life of whoever is sitting in the passenger seat) in jeopardy. So , now you are irked because the new Volt MIGHT have a potential problem?

GM has notified the public of the potential problem and offered to buy it back while searching for a fix. What more do you expect?

GM, good job!
