He kind of had the Midas touch, except with poo instead of gold.

All the parts are produced/bought/assembled in the most cost effective manner that allows the manufacturer to make the most money possible. There are thousands of deaths each year from vechile malfunctions that automobile producers dont deem it necessary or cost effective to issue a recall for the defective part.

There is a lot of money involved here and if the replacement parts are cheaper and the customers won't shit bricks at having to foot the bill, like they would if they had to pay for replacement parts for their import. Then why shell out cash you don't have.

I'm not really sure what you just said, but import parts aren't all that more expensive than domestic parts and tend to break less often in MY experience (tjamz=former muscle car fan)

back to the original subject, i think a parts supplier made a massive batch of bad parts, i know of other company's having massive balljoint/tierod recalls lately also

Pretty sure it would be the Ford Motor Co., which would include everything. I could be wrong though.

I can see sales of trucks and SUVs, which have been one of Ford's main items, picking up in the next couple of months if gas and fuel prices stay lower.
