Default Associated Press Blows Wistle on GM Baby Killers with Shocking Article.

Oh Give me a Flipp'n break, what has this country come to that this is actually considered "news".... I don't know what's worse the fact that some reporter calls this a "safety defect" or the fact that GM actually capitulated into offering a recall on this. Who the hell reads the Owner Manual anyways? "Geez Marge, bought my New Pontiac, lets read the manual so we know how to drive it..."

GM Recalls Nearly 113,000 Vehicles

General Motors Recalls Nearly 113,000 Vehicles Due to Safety Defects

NHTSA also said Thursday that GM is recalling 35,777 of its 2005 Pontiac G6 sedans because the owner's manual doesn't say there is a child restraint anchor in the middle of the back seat. NHTSA said owners could have difficulty installing child seats if they aren't aware of the anchor.

Adler said GM will mail information about the child seat anchors to G6 owners this month.

I get sick of all the "politically-correct" stuff we have to go through now-a-days. We spend more time trying to figure out how to keep our behinds covered than we do living and enjoying life.
