Just as well I have never bought a GM product.
Here in the UK, we have consumer laws which demand that products
must work out of the box (they must perform the tasks they are sold
for when bought). Anything that does not work when bought goes
straight back to the retailers. No ifs or buts or recalls. Its a
bit difficult to excercise on cars but smaller items, no problems.
Listen, if a camera visits a repair workshop, its second-hand. Its
that plain simple. Why should we pay new prices for second-hand
goods?

MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!
I know it's almost winter--but, I had no intention of creating this
SNOWBALL EFFECT! Why I mentioned G.M. is only because "I" see this
sort of thing EVERY DAY! I am, in effect, just like the Sony tech.
that will fix your 717, HE didn't design, or build it----- he's
just trying to fix it for you!
So please, don't take it out on the technicians
(salesmen?------we'll THAT'S O.K.)LOL All i'm saying is-- No
company does EVERYTHING perfect, sure, they made a bad call in
letting them out, BUT, maybe it was even pressure from stockholders
to get it on the shelf and quit sinking money into it, and they had
NO choice, who knows! Most corporate mistakes in my opinion come
from greed to offset the competition and not lose a sale, even at
the cost of quality at times. All I wanted to initially say
is----you 1% of 717 owners SO upset over this, LIGHTEN UP! If
everything we bought in life was flawless we'd still be out in the
yard with our little wooden wind up airplanes, personally, mine
broke when it smashed into the garage, as did the other 10 of them.
I guess I haven't been right since
P.S. SORRY for all the fuss i've created
