Consumer Description

This vehicle is equipped with blue tooth which should allow me to drive hands free, focusing on the road and cars around me while GPS provides directions from my car speakers. Every day my phone looses connection to the blue tooth which stops GPS from going through my speakers which cause me to take my eyes off the road to see what the problem is. I have seen numerous websites which document this is an on going and huge issue with all GM vehicles. I live in a state in which distracted driving is enough of an offense to warrant police to pull you over. Manufacturers should not be allowed to push out vehicles that do not function as they are marketed that they do work when in reality this is a piece of shit that will cause accidents.
