Everyone should know that GM and also Chrysler has repaid their debts. Faster than the banks! They also saved more jobs than the banks. Not a bad investment considering the millions it would have cost had they gone under.

What a break for GM's volt and Cruze that gas is at 4 bucks a gallon. What are the chances?

In a UAW related Story:

Imagine turning your car's steering wheel, or giving it a gentle tug, and having it break away from the steering column. Now you're speeding along holding the suddenly useless wheel.

It sounds like a vision from a cartoon, or every driver's nightmare. And it happened to at least one driver of a 2011 Chevrolet Cruze compact car last month, and General Motors Corp. is recalling 2,100 of the cars as a result.


Gotta love that Union Quality. Break time is over, stop drinking your beer and smoking your pot.

"Dude, did you put the nut on steering wheel?"

I am much more engouraged by this car than the POS Volt that is about to be shoved down our throats by the leftie tree huggers in office.

I hope the repugnants take a hit for this. At least in Michigan and Ohio.

My friend bought one a couple of months ago and I had to pick it up for her. It was great! No sudden acceleration problems! I hope the repugnants take a hit for this, at least in Michigan and Ohio.

Do not get too secured in that job. The stuff GM makes is still f--king junk.

This is awesome! I'm thrilled that GM is able to make this comeback and get more people back to work, PLUS doing it by manufacturing a reasonably affordable car that gets decent gas mileage! Way to go!!

And yes, a big plus goes to the politicians who were willing to help GM get back on their feet.

Looks like the govt & the unions run the company for big profit & have great cars-too bad the failed banks & crooked insurance companies had no strong union workers to save them from their greedy failed managers...

If you're reading this story thank a Democrat. Thanks to Pres Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid for saving GM and this town. The Republicans wanted to let these jobs go to China. I'm sure that their friends on Wall Street were going to make a bundle selling out more American jobs.

This is how an effective government works FOR THE PEOPLE!
