Yep. For all of them: wait a few years. It sucks too because that's what drives demand, its just too had to trust that they're going to last longer than the payments on them do.

Having worked for GM before, I have to agree. The cars aren't necessarily always unreliable, they do make some good ones too. But when they mess up, they mess up badly and the repair bills run into the thousands.
