Looks like Ford is telling dealerships to replace every failing PowerShift dual-clutch for free on the heels of the damning Detroit Free Press article: https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2019/07/ford-ordering-dealerships-to-fix-dual-clutch-fiesta-and-focus-models-report/ quote:The engineer, who no longer works at Ford and requested anonymity out of concern it might jeopardize his career in the auto industry, said the company had previously identified transmission issues in high-profit trucks and disrupted everything to issue “stop ships to limit quality exposure” and fix those problems. The DPS6 transmission was treated differently. I wonder if part of killing the Focus/Fiesta in North America was to get out from under what are about to become Pinto-level cursed model names. They still have no idea why Explorer drivers become aggressive dumbshits: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2019-ford-explorer-owners-say-suvs-making-them-sick/ Seat Safety Switch fucked around with this message at 03:59 on Jul 20, 2019 |

It is pretty traditional for Nissan to repeatedly gently caress the dog until their auto-industry management is removed and replaced by bankers, who actually run the company better. It's a little unusual for them to fire two inept auto-industry management structures in a row, but something something the new economy.

Criticizing Mitsuoka for making a car too mundane is proof that we are approaching the terminus of our civilization.

Powershift posted:Also built in Iran, the Saipa Saina, based on the Kia Pride which was the Korean version of the first gen Ford Festiva. But they get it in truck form! TRUCK FORM!!!  More bed room than a Cybertrukk! A manual transmission! BP turbo swap potential!
