When I was on surgery as a student, we would have to work some shifts that were 30+ hour days (5am - 10/11am the next day).

Before that law came in, there were almost no restrictions on how many hours a resident could work... In fact, the origin of the name is "resident of the house" (hospital), bc they used to live in the hospital.

here is an article for you

Yeah...as someone in a similar safety-critical profession...that sh*t is downright unsafe. It's unsafe for the patients. It's unsafe for you (driving to/from work). That's bull crap.

We should be pressing Chevy to resolve these issues, not overlook them. Because if we the consumers don't, then Chevy will continue to be okay with their (insert percentage here) complaint rate.

I bought the car in spite of known reliability issues, based on performance, but I'm not entirely happy with the car because of them.
THIS!

Someone saying airbag sensor issues and the right rearview mirror not working are "minor issues" on a car with less than 400 miles is hilarious. No, that's not normal or a "minor" issue on a brand new $40,000 car. I get the occasional hiccups for the first 10,000 miles... But multiple issues under 400 miles? Give me a break...

^^One loose electrical connector can cause multiple issues. Rather than speculate, the car should be taken in to get looked over. While I agree it's not cool to have problems with such low miles (I wouldn't be happy either), the fact is, cars are becoming more and more like computers and you know how that goes. Not an excuse, just reality.

I used to think the same thing... But from the studies I've seen quoted, it has not significantly reduced medical errors.

[QUOTE=grampa_ss;10190090]The first thing I'd do is disconnect the negative battery cable for 15-20 mins. Reconnect.
This forces the system to reboot. This is what fixed my display from choosing it's own language and radio stations. It's been 1 year and hasn't returned.[/QUOTE

Who did the rendering of your car - very cool!

Welcome to mass produced, assembly line, blue collar brand cars. Just be glad this isn't GM of the 1980s... Not perfect, but GM, Chrysler FCA, and Ford have all come a long way.

My wife's $46k 4Runner has been in the shop more than my Camaro and my 60k mile RAM have combined.
