Who pays for the recall if the defect is the fault of the supplier?

The manufacture can seek "indemnity" from the supplier, ie, the supplier takes a big hit too.

But like Don said in this particular case RAM gets the black eye and not their supplier.

Macorroni has already turned some heads over at the Chrysler Corp. division, but the Quality Culture hasn't changed. There are methods to improve a quality culture within your manufacturing operation and your suppliers, but it's not easy especially if you already have a bad quality culture within your operations and suppliers.

I don't think people expect perfection from any mass produced vehicle, but there's a tipping point in which these recalls can go too far and customers/potential customers will notice.
