I've also heard many of you on these forums mentioning their camaro's power windows were failing..
and of course ford = fix or repair daily...which in the past 10 weeks thats proven to be 100% fact with our ford...
so heres my question(s)..
does Chevy Still have electrical issues with their vehicles?...
If so, how does GM expect the Volt to sell, with America knowing GM's histor of issues with their electrical system?..seeing as how this car is going to have electrical systems out the ying yang...?
or do you think that the fact the Volt is a LOT better in many aspects (than the Prius) will sell the car alone...or will the "Chevy electrical issue" be a downfall for this new innovation from Chevrolet.
In the general public, foreign cars are "more reliable, and have way less issues than American cars, and last a lot longer"
I'm not knockin Chevy..nor the Volt. I'm just wondering what you think..
and btw, my apologies if this is a repost.
P.S. - What's Dodge's issue?...

unless the electrical issues are directly related to its drive train, they won't matter. The differences in reliability are now minor, and every new GM vehicle seems to rate higher in initial quality than Japanese counterparts. But public perception still remains, and will continue for some time to come.
