The industry purchases more GM parts than any other company. The fact that 
your friend have problems with their electrical system is unfortunate for 
them. There are over 15,000 parts on a car, if it is 99.9% perfect you still 
have 15 problems. One thing you will find is that most electric problems can 
usually be traced to the installation of an aftermarket, stereo, phone, alarm 
system etc. I know of an incident where a phone was installed in an STS and 
resulted in the destroying of a Northstar transmission. You can't just tap a 
hot wire anymore.
