2015 Corvettes are being recalled, Orders on hold. =P
 

It seems like a lot of car companies are issuing recalls. Are these car companies testing their vehicles enough using real people?

The whole ignition switch recall is stupid.  I dunno why people insist on having 9000 keys on there keychains anyways.  I've got a carabiner with all my keys on it and my car key is on its own easily detachable.  As for the whole amount of GM cars recalled, yes its crazy, but at least they are acknowledging there are problems and are working to rectify the problems.  Some things are so minute it takes a huge data set to find a flaw.  My car was on recall for multiple things over the years, does it change my opinion of GM in my book, nope.  As a matter of fact i'm looking to purchase a 6th generation camaro when they are finally unveiled.  How do we know that other car manufacturers don't have many defects as well, they just don't want to publicly admit it.

Not sure what you're talking about? It's not about how many keys you have.. It's the fact that it's super easy to shut the car off with your knee... That was the whole issue.

The weight of keys hanging on there have made it easier.  I really don't know how hard it would be to hit the ignition switch in my car with my knee as thankfully my G6 has the key on the dash versus the steering column, if i were to manage to hit the key there is something wrong anyways.  But IMO this whole deal is another point in the favor of the gimmicky push to start buttons

Not sure this is a valid point.  Do not owners of Toyota, Honda and other manufacturers do the same thing?  If so, then why are they not having the same issue?  I love my "gimmicky" push button start.  I always have my fob in my pocket and I am never fumbling for the keys.  Maybe GM should market to a better clientele, as they seem to have too many keys on their key rings (at least more than buy other manufacturer's cars) and find a way to get their knee to hit the steering wheel just right while they drive to make the car ignition turn the power off.  I say they just make them for midget circus clowns.
