The class action suit I got involved in was with GM and their defective automatic transmissions circa 1980. I settled on the side with a GM VP, so my transmission repair was paid for.

After my second GM transmission failure that GM COULD NOT FIX I have NOT bought another GM product and WILL NOT. None of my children drive GM products. The second one was 48 miles out of warranty and the best GM headquarters would offer me was free parts if I paid the labor.

Guess who won. I wouldn't have one if you gave it to me.
