General Motors Company (NYSE: GM) is now considered the worst big automaker to deal with, according to a new survey of top suppliers to the car industry in the United States. The blow comes after the company has already dealt with plenty of scrutiny after a deadly  ignition defect  triggered the recall of 2.6 million of the company's vehicles.  The annual survey, which is conducted by the automotive consultant group Planning Perspectives Inc, asks the industry's biggest suppliers to rate their relationships with the six automakers that account for more than 85 percent of all light vehicle sales in the United States.


General Motors Company (GM) designs, manufactures, and markets cars, crossovers, trucks, and automobile parts worldwide. The company markets its vehicles primarily under the Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Opel, Holden, and Vauxhall brand names, as well as under the Alpheon, Jiefang, Baojun, and Wuling brand names. It also sells cars and trucks to dealers for consumer retail sales, as well as to fleet customers, including daily rental car companies, commercial fleet customers, leasing companies, and governments.
