I wonder if she realizes that both Honda and Toyota are now built in the US and Ford and GM car components are now made in Mexico and/or Canada.
I don’t see how buying an inferior product helps anyone.
It doesn’t help the consumer and it doesn’t help the manufacturer. Recalls, lawsuits, and loss of confidence in the inferior product hurts over the long run.
American car companies had a monopoly for over 75 years. They squandered their monopoly by continuing to produce an inferior product. When the Japanese manufacturers started producing a better product, instead of raising quality, they use false patriotism to guilt people into buying junk.
I guess patriotism is a one way street. Americans are obligated to buy American cars, but the manufacturers have no patriotic obligation to produce a quality product.
I’d laugh at that lady because she’s probably on her way to get her transmission fixed for the third time.

What are you doing about Mattel Fisher-Price recall?
Question by Tonks: What are you doing about Mattel Fisher-Price recall?
My daughter received one of the Mattel products that are on the recall list for her birthday recently. The recall notice says the date code should be between 109-7LF thru 187-7LF.
The toy set she received has a date code of 017-7LF, which means it’s not up for recall. However, I still took the toy away from her because I am a bit uneasy about the possibility of lead in the product. I’ve already been affected by the Thomas train recall and am growing very concerned. Any opinions? Should I allow her to play with the supposed “non-affected” recalled product?
I believe I mentioned that someone “gave” my daughter the recalled product. I don’t make a habit of buying “Made in China.”
