I’m sure people will be glad to get that little piece of plastic to protect their life.

So a chincy chunk of plastic is going to keep the roof from caving in during a rollover?

No…it’s going to keep their head from caving in.

What happened GM forgot to cut the check to LLN this month ?
Why are they actually reporting GM recalls
The New GM huh
I cant wait to hear the excuse for this one by the regulars

Well I guess Toyota doesn’t cut LLN any checks because everyone one of their recalls has been reported even the ones that Toyota said wasn’t a recall Because It was “warranty service extension”….

Back to this. I know they issued a recall last summer very similiar to this for the Cobalts. It had something to do with installing a safety feature in the driver side headline, so I’m assuming since they are both built off of the same platform that they are similiar. I wonder why this isn’t being recalled until just now.

Terrible way to start the year, GM. Ford announced recalls this week too.

I don’t give a **** what anyone says, almost any type of plastic is hard. A solid piece of plastic is not going to keep you that safe, an airbag is. What is “energy-absorbing” plastic anyway? Hey one time when I was a kid I was going too fast down a hill on my longboard and I had to use a parked car to stop me so that I wouldn’t die in traffic; the metal door on the car caved in upon my collision with it and broke several of my ribs. I guess that door can be considered as “energy-absorbing” metal =/

F3INT:Hey one time when I was a kid and I went to band camp and well lets just say that the plastic was hard and did not absorb any of my impacts. So I used my brass flute instead and then I broke some ribs……

F3INT, “energy absorbing plastic” is the kind that 1115 insists his ass-dildos are made from because he mounts them on his 95-Accord-driving daddy’s sawzaw and jackhammers his ass all night with them while wanking on Rosie O’Donnell fan-magazines.

I drove an HHR on a recent trip to Alta, UT and it was a piece of crap. The brakes could not handle the mountain roads and pulsed horribly while coming down. Climbing up the mountain with more than 2 passengers required practically flooring the thing.

GM couldn’t AFFORD the check this month!!

Recall? I thought Toyota pioneered the term “warranty extension” for the industry to use from now on?

That’s 71% of all HHRs in North America.

Wow GM…

Well, the good thing is that there weren’t any mechanical-related recalls. This doesn’t seem like that big of a deal to me. I’ve been in 2 rollovers in vehicles without curtain air bags and I didn’t really get hurt.

HMMMMM call back when the wheels and doors are falling off.

rodeo40,
pulsating was ABS working, you dumb ass!

NOT a good way to start the year.

By the way, 1115, give me one newsworthy recall (as in a recall that other auto blogs reported that LLN didn’t) or just any GM recall that LLN failed to report. Also, provide some evidence that LLN is being “payed off by GM”. I’d love it to see – it would be fascinating; might even write a book about this whole GM-LLN conspiracy

I rented one of these for a week and drove it to BC last summer and it was alright. Wished I knew about this recall back then, with two 4 year olds in the back seats this news sounds eerie.

Well the good news GM sold that many of them. I thought copying Chrysler would not be that profitable.
BTW, I think it is bigger deal to repair then mechanical defect: how do you fix roof and frame? It’s not like a ****ty bolt or a bearing or capacitor.

Golf you are right lol lol
FLR great comeback (look up the worrd sarcasm)
Commo I agree bad way for GM to start off the new year Recalls fires Billions dollar loses
BTW hows that malibu doing I havent seen them on the road
HA!

More Recall news from the Recall News Network..LLN. Hey LLN…why don’t you just start a website dedicated to recalls only and just advise all of us that care to go to the link?? There is so much other news out there to report on, the recalls are just plain BORING!!

GM did the right thing, and that is what the consumer will remember.

Here at GM, our motto is “Safety Last.”

Be careful, crash the wrong way and you might hurt your head.

Stupid Federal standards – I’ll bet for this to happen you have to be 6′7″, 280lbs and have your finger up your nose…probably never happen for the normal person.

Sorry, Al Gore is 6′7″ in his high heels, 280lbs of blubber mostly in his ass, and as of this moment has his finger up his nose … good idea to recall GM.

I don’t understand how a product can be released to the public without meeting federal crash standards first. Don’t the feds crash test new vehicles and have to sign off on them before they can be sold?

I can’t believe there were people stupid enough to buy such an ugly car. GM’s version of the PT cruiser is a sad joke, and now sad and unsafe!

You ignorant person….it is not unsafe…

GM is going to install that piece of plastic to save your life.

If I had to make a choice I would buy a thousand of these before I buy a PT Cruiser. This car looks much better that and crock of ****.

@ Bimmer…no, PULSING as in the brakes are too small and got so hot that they PULSED…the road was dry. damn you’re dumb.

rodeo,
you cumm faced idiot, when brakes get too hot, they don’t pulse, they become mushy. You have to use considerable force and pedal travels all the way to the floor, before brakes starty to work. You haven’t taking car to a race circut, for sure.

How do you put a car on the road without knowing it meets standards?

Fairlight: “Toyogurt” is good
