Can they ever build a vehicle without 6 recalls. Total junk , hardly any products- so you would think they could build their severely limited models defect free. Plus styling and colors suck too
I think it is criminal that they charge you extra for certain paint colors, weren’t they free back in the day. American Greed
Just a Sh***y company. Whats the total now? 30 recalls in the first quarter?
