Customer call report of a 1/15/79 visit to General Motors Research in Warren, Michigan, to determine the status of Calidria in the friction products program. It records that GM had decided to eliminate asbestos in friction products by 1985, that the salesman wrote this 'effectively kills the "Calidria" program', and that GM's biggest concern was third-party lawsuits from sanding in small brake shops. A follow-up note recommends checking in with Ed twice a year.
