Im gonna have to say this.... how many CTS-V's have they made? And how many of those CTS-V's have had those problems? Its a fact of life that **** like that is going to happen with cars and manufatcurers, it is unfortunate that it happens to one of their flagship cars though.

It was either motortrend or car and driver that also reported after they drove their CTSV for a year it turned into a piece of ****.

And Bob Lutz thinks GM is going out of business because their health insurance costs too much! LOL!
