But regardless, I'll rephrase my question for you. RON, who manufactured your fucked up lifter? Better?

P.S. My friend Mike, used to be a Mercedes Tech. When a customer told him that the car was making a "funny noise," he would tell them to come back when the noise was "hilarious."
LOL!
What you said about the manufacturers has merit. At GM we do not have recalls, they are campaigns. Also GM vehicles do not have firewalls because the word fire suggests that one could happen, we have bulk heads. I wonder if lawyers could have anything to do with it?
"RON, who manufactured your fucked up lifter? Better?"
Much better!
