40 years ago for Ford and GM is a very long time past and very very few of the vehicles are even driven today. Both of those cases were settled close to 30 years ago and both Ford and GM stepped up and paid out hundreds of millions of dollars and that was back when a million dollars meant a million dollars and was a lot of money. A million dollars today is just a fraction of the dollar value of back then.
Now is now!
Chrysler vehicles however, with the about 10+ years ago or the even 6 years ago (thru 2007) with the bulk of the vehicles still being constantly driven daily on the roads by families etc is not! Also having had Chrysler flatout refuse to do anything when presented the NHTSA documents really isn't going to help those with the problematic issues. Chrysler Corp built these vehicles did they not and not very long ago either. Is it the customer's fault for buying the Chrysler Corp made vehicles??? OR Is it Chrysler Corp who actually designed and manufactured the to be recalled vehicles??? Not hard to answer! How many more humans have to die in vehicle fires etc before the only one that can correct the vehicles they made steps up and fixes the problems they had made?
If you can't see the difference, I sure can't help you!
40 years ago Ha. Read the link I posted and also those gm trucks killed 2000 people up to 2009. Here is a little of it just for you.
"The side saddle fuel tank design installed in over 10 million trucks - all 1973-87 General Motors full-size pickups and cab-chassis trucks (pickups without beds) and some 1988-91 dual cab or RV chassis - is the worst auto crash fire defect in the history of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Based on data from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (formerly known as the Fatal Accident Reporting System), over 2,000 people were killed in fire crashes involving these trucks from 1973 through 2009."
