GM has a problem with a product that came from one of companies that supply products for their cars.

How can you say that GM didn't test the sunroof? Or are you trying to say that GM knew of the problem and put it on the car anyway? I don't believe GM or Cadillac knowingly installed a product in their cars that will give them a problem. Every auto maker wants to make a car that people like and doesn't have a problem with it at all. Nothing is perfect.

I'm not defending GM here. My SRX is the first GM product I've ever owned. I just don't think for a second that any other auto maker does things any different than GM. As with any other issue on any other car, sometimes things just happen. A part fails, a design is not as good as it could be, etc. Life goes on.


Real world can only be duplicated in real world conditions. A doctor once said to me " I only prescribe medication that has been out for 5-10 years" Do you think drug companies want a PHEN-PHEN or Vioxx drug in their lineup?? I'm using this analogy because on some things you can test all you want but until it gets used by the masses???????????
