"Well you see, making those conductors undersized saved us $1 per unit, which allowed us to get the lower bid, and increase shareholder value at the time. Now, of course, is a different financial quarter and what we did before doesn't matter."
I guarantee there's a spreadsheet at Ford that does the math on whether saving that $1 per unit is worth it considering the chance of a recall. Looks like their gamble didn't pay off.
One step closer to fight club.
