Mopar gets the last word
Does anybody else watch youtube.com auto repair videos? It sure seems like GM products have a lot of electrical problems, which have multiplied because their cars now contain so many separate computers. When you combine this with, IMHO, the way GM started skimping on their wiring harnesses and connectors in the late '60s due to the increase in the price of copper during to the Vietnam war, and they've kept skimping on them ever since. I really don't think anyone who knows very much about cars would ever buy a new GM vehicle because their electrical systems are too well-known as trouble-prone. Of course, a lot of people know nothing about cars and will buy them anyway.
We used to say the same thing about Fords in the late '80's, if people still did most of their own service like say 20+ years before, Ford would've went out of business.
I can't even begin with how shitty GM's ignitions,modules,coils, computers, terminals melting,GEEBUZZ!! Even the good 'ole days, (HEI?), yikes!People have short memories,
(those of Us who were around then to fix 'em), holes burned thru caps, bad wire above the module...POOF!!, can't even count how many ECM's got changed in the years up
'till close to Y2K. Swap the PROM, install, wait for that one to take a s**t, sometimes the drivers got burned out by any number of intermittent coil shorts, trans solenoids,
injectors,purge valves, blah blah blah. I can count on one hand how many Mopar and Ford ECM/ECA's failed on their own w/o some boneheaded move like reversed cable
jump starts etc., just a fact.
