Steering wheels falling off the cruze while going 65
Just what the title says... I thought this was supposed to be "Leaps and bounds" over the cobalt quality.

when you get paid rediculous money to be in a union secured job.... you are gonna get paid doing a good job or a bad job. They have no motivation to create a refined product

this seems like it would be an engineering or sourcing issue, not an assembly line issue, and I dont think GM's engineers are union. But if it was quality control or a parts puller screw up, then maybe it was a union worker. Either way, who cares who's fault it was, just fix it.

I just don't like the way the typical ones are handled. They are good is most cases. (Teachers unions, Public service, most companies.) But the GM Auto unions are mismanaged, and not well regulated.

well thats like saying you would never own a toyota because a problem happens like the gas pedal recall, which was over 2.2 million cars versus a mere 2100

Why would it be an engineering issue? They don't assemble anything and most of them aren't anywhere near the assembly line. If I was going to point fingers I'd point them at the supplier who may have mixed parts in their shipment. Typically parts just come in a huge box and a line worker opens it, grabs a part, puts it on the car, then repeats until the box it empty.
