You can change you name, but you can't wash away the past.
no, but thats not even close to what happened. It would be if we were discussing Motors Liquidation Company ... but we're not. We're talking about the company created little more than 1 year ago.

Few take their car to the company, unless the dealership happens to be owned by the company. Many take them to an independently owned and operated dealership. Others take them to generalized shops who are also certified for warranty work.

You are confusing M.L.Co with G.M.Co.

A more accurate comparison would be going bankrupt as a couple, as a result of your spouse. Then you divorce and you more or less keep your name, and your spouse changes theirs. Its not a perfect analogy, but its a lot better.
