GM recalling nearly 4,300 Chevrolet Sonics--missing brake pads?

Yup, "Chevy Runs Deep"(and into ditches, into oncoming traffic, into brick walls, etc., etc. when they don't have any break pads).

That must be where Obama agreed to cut costs...

I can understand something like that happening, but what I dont understand is how something like that can go unnoticed all the way down to the customer. I mean think about how many people have driven or moved the car before the customer bought it, and then dont people test drive the cars too? What happened along the line where nobody noticed that the brakes were not working right and/or making noise? I guess what needs to be recalled is all the idiots who were involved in building, driving and buying these cars.

Its them fine union workers. The inner pad guy didn't show up one day and then a few days later the outer pad guy didn't show. Do to union rules they couldn't make somebody else do that job so they just skipped putting on that part. LOL!

Those cars were built on the days the brake pad installers took off to participate in the occupy rallys to protest big companies.
