You did everything right in selecting an auto repair facility--you did your research, took your time to understand the technician's explanations--and still a repair has not worked out. So what do you do now? There are some steps that every car owner can take to salvage an otherwise bad experience: Know the law. Take time to research the consumer...
It's hard to believe, but the brand known as Chevrolet (or sometimes, Chevy) was founded 100 years ago. Among the many things being done to mark the occasion, Chevrolet is auctioning off a special-edition 2012 Corvette Z06 at this Saturday's Barrett-Jackson auction in Palm Beach, with proceeds put toward the fight against pediatric cancer. For the...
GM's best-selling sedan gets a major refurbishing early next year in the form of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu, which is being teased today in this photo released by General Motors. The current Chevy Malibu was named North American Car of the Year when it was introduced for the 2008 model year, and since then, it's become one of General Motors' sales...
When I saw this commercial for the Smart Car a little while a go, all I could think of was one movie that is widely lauded by biblical scholars, male slackers with low-riding, pizza-stained jeans, and most Caucasian men in their 40s who once may have been cool, hip and with it for about one semester at university. That movie was This Is Spinal...
American drivers continue to downsize their vehicle choices to enhance fuel economy. No wonder. Gas prices have steadily increased since last fall, and drivers across the country are wondering when escalating fuel prices will begin to come down. In the meantime, commuters and others who have no choice but to put on a higher-than-average number of...
In the aftermath of the devastating March 11 earthquake and resulting tsunami, Japan's automakers are just starting to formulate plans to get rolling once again—at least in part. After being shut down for more than a month, several of Toyota's plants will begin limited production between April 18 and April 27, when it's scheduled to go at...
The Basics: The large Traverse was introduced several years ago as a more carlike successor to the Chevrolet Trailblazer, falling into place below the burly Chevy Tahoe SUV. And with a more passenger-friendly layout inside that makes it feel at times like a minivan if it weren't for the hinged back doors, it's a great design for daily-grind family...
The Basics: Last year, an all-new SRX—based on the Chevrolet Equinox, but extensively reengineered—made its debut, replacing the old SRX model that had failed to strike a chord with luxury shoppers. The new design forgoes the former SRX's three rows of seating for a five-passenger design, and now has a primarily front-wheel drive...
The Basics: The 2011 Ford Edge doesn't bring radical change to America—at least not from the outside—but it's a beefier take on the five-seat crossover that gave Ford new life after the Explorer fell to earth. Ford's calling this Edge a "refresh." On the market five years already, the Edge has been pretty thoroughly refurbished but...
The Basics: Can you imagine a seven-seat crossover that makes you think "responsive?" There are a few—and maybe the least likely vehicle to fit that description is the 2011 Lincoln MKT. A long, low, wide barge on first glance, the MKT has the good fortune of sharing its running gear with the Ford Flex, and to some extent, the Ford Taurus and...
Mercedes-Benz will be showing a high-performance version of their A-Class urban commuter at both the upcoming Shanghai and New York Auto Shows. Long a favorite in the space-starved EU, the Mercedes A-Class is small even by European standards; larger than a Smart Fortwo, the A-Class is still smaller than both the MINI Cooper and the Fiat 500. Will...
