I believe it would be very valuable to have a list of the known recall issues that have occurred. Because let's face it, many times the dealership might not even know about those things.

As far as all the minor issues people were having that were practically one-off problems, those probably should have been kept in a seperate list that didn't need to be stickied. It makes sense for people to want to find out if anyone else is having the same issue they may be experiencing. But lumping those smaller issues into the major recall issues clouds the severity of the problems.

I don't believe the thread was initially created to cause damage to GM or Chevrolet's image, but it garnered bad attention due to the lack of filter between the major recalls and the minor issues that have surfaced.
I think this is what happened. I agree people just wanted to know if others were having the same problem. The way its set up now is much better.

I believe no where in my post it said to forget about it. We, as a group, know what the problems are, what I'm saying is a potential buyer sees a list with 68 problems on it (more than half are isolated cases one two cars) the Camaro has now been taken of the list of that buyer....Not only does GM get hurt but WE get hurt also. The more cars GM sells the more we'll see in the future in the form of options and content from GM and aftermaket companies...
