Reed THANKS a bunch,man I can see myself going from an Escalade ESV & CTS-V to an Audi Q7 & RS4 in 08. They keep pushing me over to the DARK SIDE little by little.

so I can present them to GM (anonymously) and they can see what this has done to their customers. Plain an simple. I have recevied lots of those submissions already and I am encouraged that when they read these responses from THEIR customers, they may think twice.

Comment submitted. Hopefully everything gets worked out. Thanks for all of your hard work, Reed.

Im trying to decide so I will ask you guys:

Should I post the responses on a page publically (anonymous) or just forward them on to GM folks...

You guys make some pretty good points in your comments...

let me know your thoughts!

Reed

Do both.
I'll probably keep my current V but if GM can't find a better way to support us, I'll go elsewhere for my next purchase.

Agreed.

Reed,

Please respond to this suggestion by onebadcad. Can you have your little birdie lawyer take a look at whether this would violate GM's restrictions. I can't believe they can block you from listing the name/subject, date, and number of a technical service bulletin. Sometimes just knowing that a bulletin is out there at all at least gives you a chance to dialogue with the dealership on a repair, or lets you know to go out and search out a legal copy of the TSB.

I'd really like to hear if just listing the names of TSBs is something GM can restrict.

It's really up to you. You could just present some bullet points of the good arguments from various comments.

I think a large dose of letters/comments forwarded to GM would be better. Publicly would seem like retaliation. Posting publicly can also wait until later if GM does not cooperate.

Wisdom here. Don't cast your pearls before the swine. At least not publicly.

[ctsvett]

To clarify, (cause this has been asked several times now), the TSB #s and description will still be available here:

http://www.cadillacfaq.com/faq/tsb/ but the actual TSB will no longer be on the FAQ. No issues there...

SO is the consensus to keep everyone's comments non public now? But you guys write so elequently...

[CVP33]

Reed,

I'm confident you'll make the right decision. I wrote in for you to use as you see fit. You're the engineer = identify the problem, identify the goal, apply the least amount of effort to bridge the two.

[MLV]

Use my comments as you see fit. I wrote them for GM to read.

True that it's there, but apparently not for free. I wonder if GM knows they're charging people to look at their copywrited info.

Thanks for the link.
