What's unamerican is the GM people building cars to break at certain mileage thesholds. Same part, different car owners, same models,same mileage. They do this so they make more money in repairs, while the foreign car manufacturers build cars to last.

Americans have been screwed over by the gm people for too long and now GM faces a uphill battle to regain american confidence in their cars. I don't see this happening anytime soon because consumers need to see the new GM perform through the years with quality built cars that are built to last instead of breaking down at certain mileage thesholds. It will take 10-15 years of quality cars to regain the American consumer's confidence.
The foreign made manufacturers understand the American consumer and they build cars that are dependable. Americans have accepted the Global world market while GM played with american consumers by pressuring us to buy american because it was patriotic. GM, in all reality, was unpatriotic to all americans who bought their junk.
