"what about the Ford pinto with the rupturing gas tank in a rear end collision? Or the old mustang that had the drop in gas tank? The company knew of these defects and chose to pay for any law suits as it would be cheaper than correcting the problem. Boardrooms only see dollars and cents and not the human misery and death caused by the usage of their products."
Don't forget about the "speer-o-matic steering column" in the mustangs! In the '65-'66 and some '67 models, the steering shaft is straight into the steering box. No rag joint to snap off in a front end collision. this resulted in people being speared on the shaft and deaths occurred before Ford decided to add the rag joint. I have a '66 mustang and have added many safety features such as three point seat belts and high back seats. I am going to swap out the steering shaft for a rag joint one of these days.
