I have been reading articles published on this website and have discovered misleading and deceptive information concerning various products. For example: a complaint about a particular manufacturer's car was cited as a problem with the car ('rotten egg' smell, poor starts). This is usually caused by poor quality, high sulfur fuel. Also, you should be aware by now that the fuel economy numbers generated by the federal test that make assumptions about how people drive. 'Detriot foot' afflicts most US drivers and is the source of bad fuel economy. It would be refreshing to read an article on your site where you told the Whole Story, not just what someone who dosen't wnat to take responsibility for thier own actions wants to hear.

You guys should be shot for puttting this webiste up and lying to people. You are a bunch of lawyers that try to pick up new business through lies. You guys suck! and I hope you have problems with dealers. You guys are a poor excuse for human beings. When you look in the mirror know that you are a liar.

How can you take advantage of people by saying you're not affiliated ... Knowledge is power! ConsumerAffairs.Com is a non-partisan, independent information provider. We are supported entirely by advertising and are not affiliated with any other consumer organization, government agency or corporation. You are letting these corporations advertise on your site so therefore you are sleeping with the enemy by taking their money and searching out for class action lawsuits which what percentage is your take? Do you get a fee for referrals? Look at the complaints about Carnival cruise lines. Why do you let advertising go on that promote these Carnival cruises after the many complaints from comsumers on your site that they are horrible. A true consumer site wouldn't be such a hypercrite.

I looked at two topics on ConsumerAffairs.com on June 22, 2006 and in both cases I noticed a complete conflict of interest. The first was a dire warning on the use of Advair asthma inhaler arguing for the removal of such inhalers from the market immediately. At the top of the screen was an ad for the product. The second article was the horror stories regarding trying to terminate AOL service. At the left of that screen was an ad for AOL. In other words, we have the image of a business drawing people into this site thinking that this is a consumer protection organization but in fact, it is just another Internet business making it's money by advertising the very things it is reporting as problems for consumers. That's why Consumers Union takes no ads. Although it appears to be rather cute that you get the very companies you are reporting on to pay for the page that questions the dealings of those companies, it still leaves a very bad taste in one's mouth.
