I'd be willing to bet that the folks at GM knew about Ralphie's book before it was published. It only started with the Corvair and covered several other "evil" cars.
I'd also be willing to bet that the Chevy engineers knew about the short comings of the EM rear suspension design before the book was written (go ahead and argue how a swing axel is really better than a fully independant suspension).

The '66 model was on the assembly line roughly the same time that Nader's 
ook hit the shelves.

 This  article also states falsely that the '64 Corvair suspension changes
 were a  result of Nader's book "Unsafe at any Speed" .  This book was  not
 printed until 1965.

 Hi Robert!

 I would say the article states "incorrectly" that the '64 Corvair changes
 were a result etc.. . . .

 To me, the term "falsely" implies malice. "Incorrectly" is a factual
 statement of a mistake.

 But that's just my opinion!
