Default Ford does it *again* (more fires)


http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/06/16/for...les/index.html

I'd say it's unbelievable, but it's not. Ford's got a long and, uh,
glowing track record of this kind of stupid ****. What's novel about this
one is the cause: this time it's not poorly-designed alternators or
poorly-designed ignition switches or poorly-designed transmission parking
pawls or poorly-designed fan clutches or poorly-designed gas tanks causing
Fords to be deathboxes. This time, it's the cruise control deactivation
switch that causes parked, unattended, switched-off Fords to
self-immolate.

Yishk.
