"STAYING ALIVE:
A Consumer Reports Car Safety Special"

 

This half-hour television special, narrated by Jason Robards and produced by Consumer Reports Television in association with Connecticut Public Television, takes a hard look at car safety--including the latest claims from car makers and the government. "Staying Alive" is based upon the extensive resources of Consumer Reports magazine, one of America’s most trusted sources of auto information. The special includes exclusive footage of behind-the-scenes testing at Consumer Reports’ auto test track. “Staying Alive” will appear on more than 85 public television stations across the country beginning May 14th.
