Tell me where the "collateral damage" (to coin a familiar phrase from OP, here) ends??

Again... "others" have had "problems"...and will, again...so there should NOT be any "dancing in the streets" by anyone...IMHO
It's not the fact they had problems. To be honest, they would have been much better off to nip it in the bud when it happened. It's the lengths they went to hide it, bragging about saving 100 million by negotiating a lower recall, knowing of a DEALY issue and doing nothing about it and agin, doing what they could to hide it.
