Talking HHR blindspots this bad?

Found this while looking up some info... here's the link to the page where i found it:

http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/dir...343e8/71#MSG71

But this is my favorite line:

#6. seriously bad blind spots! i have hit...2 different telephone poles, a car and a bobcat (the animal) all with the front bumper!
Now how can it be the car's fault that you have hit 4 different things with the front of you car? If you think that you car has blindspots, wouldn't you be more careful after the first hit? Obviously the poles were stationary... and in FRONT of you, how could you miss those? And how does a whole car fit in a blind spot?? And I don't think the bobcat was sitting still when she hit it

I know alot of people have complaints against HHRs... but perhaps the driver might be just a little at fault here

Thumbs up love our HHR(s)

there are so many complaints on there...my wife & I have 2 HHRs, an '06 LT (automatic) & an '09 LS (manual)...we bought both brand new & they have both been trouble free. 45,000 miles on our '06 & 15,000 miles on the '09 so far. I did have to get the brakes replaced on my '06 due to the warping, but they corrected the problem & I have not had it reoccur in 15,000 miles or so. Some people just love to complain too, I love our HHRs to death & would take them over any foreign car any day of the week.

I noticed the last post on that link was from a GM Customer Service Rep. Interesting.

I like this line off that site..
I got rear ended TWICE...I think it has to do with the rear lights not being normal. And Yet, I've never been in an auto accident before the HHR.
Normal?? they are all approved by DOT.

Wow...to blame two rear enders on the car, is a little assinine. I guess they didn't see the third brake light either :)
