General Motors (GM) has asked dealerships to stop selling approximately sixty thousand 2012 and 2013 vehicles because of a software problem with the OnStar communication system. According to GM spokesman, Alan Adler, the problem was discovered during rear end crash testing where the airbags are not suppose to deploy. The “sensing diagnostic module,” still senses when to inflate airbags, but when the airbags are not suppose to inflate, certain models may not always receive a call from an OnStar operator to check to see if the occupants are injured. The problem does not require a recall and GM has already repaired many vehicles through a remote upgrade. Owners with vehicles that cannot be repaired remotely will be notified through a GM customer service campaign and will be asked to bring their vehicles to the nearest dealership to have the problem fixed. The vehicles involved in the service campaign include:
- 2013 Buick Verano
- 2013 Cadillac ATS
- 2012 Cadillac SRX
- 2013 Cadillac XTS
- 2013 Chevrolet Cruze
- 2013 Chevrolet Equinox
- 2013 Chevrolet Volt
- 2013 GMC Terrain

General Motors Company (GMC) luxury vehicle subsidiary Cadillac, has always been known for their brash designs and big engines. But, as consumers turn to smaller more fuel efficient vehicles, they have been forced to rethink their automobile lineup in order to become competitive in the world market. According to GMC executives, the release of the Cadillac ATS will be the first of its compact luxury models that will launch it as a global contender. GMC hopes that their subtler design, loaded with the latest technology and touch screen controls will lure the younger luxury car buyer away from BMW’s 3-Series or the Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The ATS comes with three engine options, ranging from a fuel efficient four cylinder to a more powerful V-6 that can reach up to130 miles per hour. G.M. Has been advertising the ATS heavily over the summer, but the first shipments are not expected on lots until the beginning of September.

Last week GM announced that they will no longer be paying to advertise on Facebook, except for the pages that cost nothing to create. GM said that with the continuing rise of advertising costs, they question the effectiveness of certain media and are restructuring where the money is spent in order be more effective. Price concerns are not only confined to GM, with many large companies saying it is hard to know where is the best place to put their advertising money. The announcement came days before the highly anticipated Facebook stocks were to be publicly offered. The uncertainty in Facebook advertising has dampened enthusiasm for the stock as the shares for the social networking company tumble.
This week GM continues to cut its spending as they announce that they will not advertise in the next Super Bowl. According to GM’s global marketing chief, the Super Bowl advertising is effective but has become too expensive to justify the cost. Part of the GM advertising overhaul will include an emphasis on markets outside of the U.S., where GM hopes to expand into up-and-coming markets. Last year, GM spent almost $5 billion on ads.
