I can totally agree with ToyRolla's comments. Working for 7 years as a Saturn tech, I wonder the same thing. The new products are horrible compared to what they were before in terms of inital quality, and that's pretty sad. We are seeing more and more issues with the cars just comming off of the trucks. And while they are finally after years and years restyling their interiors to make them look more upstream, they are getting closer and closer to simply rebaged GM products versus the complete seperate complany that they were.

I understand that this may be a cheaper alternative for GM, howver what is the point in it all... Who needs 5 versions of the same minivan?

As for the UAW... well.. I better keep those opinions to myself.. Lets just say I own foreign cars and the occasional Saturn
