This document criticizes General Motors and argues that purchasing their vehicles is a mistake. It notes that GM has recalled over 40 million cars due to major safety issues that have led to 13 deaths. Competition from Honda, Toyota, Ford, Mazda, and Subaru offer higher quality alternatives that are directly comparable to GM's products but are better ranked in surveys and tests. The document concludes by warning that GM is irresponsibly sloppy with vehicle safety and that their products are not competitive.
