Every huge company does this; gamble with cheap parts and bad designs, hoping not to get caught. Weigh how much they stand to make over the life of the design versus the potential for fines and lawsuit settlements.
Besides, if they can't settle a lawsuit and end up with a huge judgement against them, they go cry to the government... if we pay this judgement we'll close a factory in X state and blame it on the elected officials... and presto our tax dollars save the day.
