Yup. They have been building carts for over 100 years. Several amazing engines developed and proven to be reliable and efficient. But they chased the turbo trend and created a new line of engines that are all junk. Regulations need to mandate cars be able to last up to 300k miles with basic upkeep and cheap replacement parts. Otherwise you destroy a whole industry. US car companies will need another bail out before 2030.
While I’m not one to advocate for the newer turbo engines, this recall is about an EVAP purge solenoid getting stuck open causing a vacuum leak and stalling the engine at low rpms. Not a big deal.
Yes, but look into the new engines with turbos. And the new diesel engines. Some are seizing up in under 8,000 miles. Ford had its largest year of recalls in 2025. And don’t get me started on Stellantis engines. In a market that has reached 100% saturation of car owners, how are these companies going to raise profits? Charge more, and make a cheaper quality product. That’s what wrong with the car industry. They have no other way to increase profits while keeping quality.

Not disagreeing with you on quality, its been in the dumps for 50 years.
