[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1760529, member: 31322"] Correct- the fact is the overall redesign was in the works before the pandemic hit for sure, but still….implementation of that design while dealing w/ a perfect storm of supply chain bottlenecks, tariffs/sanctions/trade war leading up to pandemic, switching up various OEM parts suppliers back/forth as a result of these supply chain/trade issues creating variability & potential inconsistency in the quality of those individual parts, labor shortage in general due to paying people not to work, pandemic protocol stuff causing “start/stop/start/stop” production runs, missing key employees for stretches of time etc etc absolutely can/would contribute to poorer overall build quality. It really isn’t that hard to understand. Didn’t try to come off offensive….but also should note that I’m in the business of selling aluminum to Ford directly (& others) so do have some insight into how that stuff effects manufacturing & it also hurt our business as well.
