These Stories Show The GM Engine Recall Is An Absolute Nightmare!
Royalty Auto Service runs two repair shops in Camden County, in southeast Georgia, and a father-and-son channel built on a promise of transparency. This week that promise pointed at General Motors. "These Stories Show The GM Engine Recall Is An Absolute Nightmare!" gathers owners' accounts of the recall, and it passed 600,000 views in four days, far ahead of anything else the channel posted.
The comment section reads like a waiting room full of people with opinions. Many viewers are stunned at how much value one owner says the truck lost in under a year, others argue about whether GM should buy the vehicles back, and a long thread keeps returning to one point: people keep buying them anyway.
The other two uploads stayed closer to the service bay. A Subaru owner who had been living with an alarming noise made for a solid start earlier in the week, and the newest video, about a dealer's window fix that held for only a week, opened briskly in its first hours. Dealers that promise a repair and don't deliver are something of a theme here.
Overall the channel ran a little below its usual daily pace, yet among the car channels nearest its size it added the most views of anyone over the seven days, with Top Dead Center close behind on a lively week of its own. Edison Motors and DragTimes were quieter. Around 4,000 new subscribers joined the shop along the way.
