Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: It is gm' policy not to mandate their dealers to have their suspension alignment equipment software up to date for the new model year autos. the software updates is typically a year behind. hence dealers are not able to diagnose suspension problems nor whne replacing made suspension parts asure that suspension is in proper alignement. this could cause poor handling and possibly an accident. the suspension alignment equipment manufactures seem to offer two maintainane packages. one is a cheaper package which is a year behind. i can not understand why we can allow dealers to service new cars with out having the poper equipment to assure its safety.*ak
