“IF I HAD A CITY, IT WOULD LOOK LIKE DETROIT”

If you think Obama and his government flunkies have done miracles with Government Motors since they saved this piece of shit union company with your tax dollars while ignoring bankruptcy law, wait until they are in complete control of your rectal exams. Obama loves to tout his saving of this awful company and the thousands of union drone jobs he was able to keep on the Democrat voting rolls. Who wouldn’t want to buy one of their death traps?

Of course, GM keeps reporting strong sales as they stuff their shitty inventory down the throats of dealers, use the government run ALLY Financial to dole out subprime 7 year 0% auto loans to the Free Shit Army Obama voters, and offer huge money losing discounts that guarantee losses for the company. They are using the tried and true method of selling each car at a loss, but promising to make it up on volume.

This is a joke of a company, reflecting a joke of a president.

The old saying “As GM goes, so goes the country” is truer today than it ever was in the 1950s.

GM Flunks Derek Zoolander School For Bailed Out Companies Who Can’t Build Cars Good, Recalls All New Camaros

Tyler Durden's picture

Another week, another massive GM recall, this time the bailed out company, which clearly is unable to build cars on the “first” attempt, announcing moments ago that it is recalling all current generation Chevvy Camaros “because a driver’s knee can bump the key FOB and cause the key to inadvertently move out of the “run” position, with a corresponding reduction or loss of power.” Supposedly, the issue, which may primarily affect drivers sitting close to the steering column (as opposed to?), was discovered by GM during internal testing following the ignition switch recall earlier this year.

Some truly divine comedy from GM:

Discovering and acting on this issue quickly is an example of the new norm for product safety at GM,” said Jeff Boyer, vice president of GM Global Safety.

One wonders how many wrongful death lawsuits are piling into the GM inbox as a result of GM “acting quickly” on what are now over 16 million recalls in 2014 alone! According to the release, GM is aware of three crashes that resulted in four minor injuries that it believes may be attributed to this condition. Is death considered a minor injury by the product safety team at GM one wonders?

Separately, GM also announced two safety recalls and one non-compliance recall involving a total of 65,121 cars in the U.S. all three of which were reported to the NHTSA on Wednesday, June 11, 2014. Including Canada, Mexico and exports, the total recall population is 69,839.

Here is the full and updated list of cars recalled by GM in 2014 alone:

 

And here is what happens to GM when month after month it confirms it has flunked the Derek Zoolander school for bailed out companies who can’t build cars good: GM has now recalled 70% more cares than it sold in all of 2013, and has recalled 83% more cars in the first 6 months of 2014 than it did in the entire 2008-2013 period!

At least all those votes Obama bought when he bailed out GM were certainly put to good use… just not for building quality cars.

Early this morning I came across a couple of videos of supposed Iraqi death squads driving around shooting up carloads of people driving down the street with AK’s (I hope they had ear protection because shooting from a vehicle is loud as all get out).

I couldn’t help but notice how many of those vehicles were brand spanking new GM autos. Not that I want a new car, even a used GM for that matter, but where exactly do droopy pants wearing Iraqi teens get the money for those 30K+ vehicles? Why so many of them? What happened to the little donkeys pulling a Datsun pickup bed behind them we saw prior to the big US invasion of ’03?

The Renaissance had a name for it’s time period, because rebirth. Our time will likely be known as the Big Grift.

Between the Bernie Madoffs, government bailouts, taxes and Money Wizards fleecing as much as they can from the system, makes you wonder how much longer the honest people can hold out paying for it all.

The corzine deal is still the benchmark for ‘wtf, over’, for me. If you spit on the sidewalk or jaywalked you’d face a harsher and more unforgiving outcome.

They aimed too low, that’s all. Give a man a gun and he can rob the bank, give a man a bank and he can rob the world!

BTW-Ever since the economist mentioned last year that he quizzes grocery clerks on food stamp users, I make a point to ask. Answers range from 50-75%, even in the suburbs.

HSF, regarding the new GM vehicles you saw in the video…….
I recently watched a video of Susan Landauer who was the first person to be prosecuted under the Patriot Act. She was a CIA asset who was working back channels to negotiate a peace treaty with IRAQ prior to the last war. According to her, the Iraqis basically caved on every single demand that the US govt, (read CIA) wanted. Part of the “deal” was that Iraq would buy one million brand new GM cars every year for ten years. I can only assume that that provision or a similar one was put in place after we imposed freedom and democracy on them this time.

Yep, they hate us for our freedom!
