  • The Zune device family

    The age of MP3 players is fully upon the automotive industry, and consumers now expect - even demand - such connectivity in even the most basic of vehicles. But getting more than basic input-output functionality for the more complex devices on the market isn't quite so easy. The Apple iPod has widespread support - though its cellular doppelganger, the iPhone doesn't, much to the chagrin of owners. To date, full support for the competing offering from Microsoft, the Zune, has been almost completely absent from any car. But now General Motors has begun a 28-model roll out of full Zune support...

  • The 2000 Buick Regal is one of the affected cars

    As if General Motors' problems weren't already complex enough, the company has now issued a recall on 1,497,516 cars from model years between 1997 and 2003 to fix an issue that could potentially cause an engine fire. The fix, however, is surprisingly simple. The problem is an odd one: under hard braking, oil may leak onto the exhaust manifold, and if that oil drips down to the non-heat-shieled portion of the manifold, it can ignite, subsequently igniting the plastics park plug wire channel, and onward from there. Chevrolet Luminas, Monte Carlos and Impalas and Oldsmobile Intrigues built in...
