Who's to say the supplier still wouldn't mix up parts? Those plants build tons of different parts and ship them to multiple customers.

Well then the part simply would not fit or it would fit properly.

I don't find this funny, I see a lot of more hatred coming from people now. First the Cavalier which we replaced and now the Cruze that replaced us.. urgh.

Those bikes, motorcycles, busses and others on the list could loose steering or brakes. Though if you did walk you might get run over by someone who lost their steering...

Thats very true. Some people don't need to lose their steering to hit you if your walking.

The list of vehicles with serious issues also goes on and on. Its hardly limited to just GM or just a Cruze. Guess you didn't think about that.
