Millions in recalls is better than billions in law suites. This is what society has created.....
On my GP GT, the fire recall is caused by a leaking v/c gasket. Every engine can have this happen. Fix the leak and you won't have a problem; I chose this route.
Ford had to put rear shoulder belts in the late model Bronco's because people were rolling the trucks while not wearing their seat belts. The passenger flies out, gets hurt, sues Ford and wins. Because of the passengers stupidity, Ford had to pay.
McDonalds got sued because somebody ordered a hot cup of coffee and burned themselves.
Gas can recall? This takes it to a whole 'nother level. Read this:

I am not saying that all recalls are frivolous, but quite a few are. MFG's have to be afraid of your (and mine) stupid legal system. We also live in a day and age where very few want to be accountable for their actions.
