Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don’t do one.

Ford had hundreds of thousands of complaints about the early Focus' (Foci's?) electrical system, and they did nothing. We got used to replacing the battery, alternator or both every year. Glad the Focus is gone, and I am seriously hoping that the Freestyle doesn't have similar issues. At least Toyota has the balls to actually initiate a recall when one is warrented.
