Las auto owner's manual for a car I read went to great lengths to tell me
I should have a qualified mechanic look at it on a period basis, and in
the section telling me what I could do there are references to the
mechanic if those simple things don't work.

The auto companies haven't been advertising that I don't need to know
anything about driving to use their cars.

I think the Cobalt apologists need to admit that the product is marketed
as a box that needs no technical skills...and at the same time those
who would blame Cobalt for every ill, including bunions, need to
realize that no one can produce a bullet-proof box.
