Are Chevrolet cars now good enough to be packaged with a full 5-year warranty?

I heard a spokesman for Chevrolet on a radio show say that Chevrolet intended to give a full inclusive 5-year warranty on all its new cars. A further idea is that Chevrolet pays buyers a loyalty bonus if, after five years, they trade their Chevrolet in for another Chevrolet. The idea is to make buyers Chevrolet drivers for life. They are also throwing in an insurance package. This sounds too good to be true. Are Chevrolets that good?

Chevrolets are now much improved. The Cruze is a decent cheaper Astra. The Orlando is okay with the diesel engines. The Spark rides very well for such a small car. All tested and video tested at www.honestjohn.co.uk
