Very Interesting

The old brand loyalty thing...again, I see. Why I ask myself.

BTW, ALL manufacturers are having difficulty with airbag malfunction...including Ford.

Here's an example.

Even more interesting Ford airbag recalls

Why would you leave your brand out of the spot light? :h

Chrysler Recall

Chrysler is not my brand. Never had one. But I'm certainly interested in considering one, next time I buy a new vehicle.

Just have had Ford, GM, Toyota, Volvo and VW in my near 50 years of ownership. Mostly GM, Ford and VW.

My point is...ALL vehicles are experiencing big recalls, not just GM...but all of them. I felt your focus on GM...alone..in a thread dedicated to a GM truck winning the MT truck of the year...was a brand loyal move. I could be wrong and please correct me, if I'm wrong, but that was my interpretation.

You will find that now and continuing in the future, federally mandated recalls...from all manufacturers will increase....due to regulatory authorities playing hardball, with increased fines and penalties, to any manufacturer that fails to heed and implement recall procedures.

I believe as a result, of increased enforcement and potentially stiffer penalties, there will be a lot more Ford, GM, Mopar Honda, Toyota, etc...recalls. IMO, there's nothing wrong with recalls. It's good for the consumer if faults are publicized and repaired by the manufacturer responsible.
