3:12 death-related crashes? I think you mean crash-related deaths 🙃

[@johnrobinson5156]

I love the Pinto. Modern Model A! High school kids could do repairs in backyard. Wagon did not have fuel tank issues. Ford recalled and corrected flaws

[@mylanmiller9656]

They run into a Pinto with a Cadillac and say look at the damage, i seen a Impala that was hit by a Kenworth there was nothing left of the car or the occupants, the driver of the truck was not injured. What do you expect when you run into a 2000 pound car with a 6000-pound car.

[@jefferypowell9885]

I had an engine mount break on a 70 Chevy Impala wide open throttle

[@jefferypowell9885]

And it pulled out the powerbreak hose i turned the key off

[@bwtv147]

I had a 69 Chevy that got the motor mount recall. I thought GM would replace the motor mounts. Instead the dealer installed a couple of cables that would keep the engine from falling out if the motor mounts failed. I remember NBC rigging GM pickup trucks with incendiary devices to explode on impact. I had a Pontiac with the faulty Takata air bags. It was recalled twice for the airbags. The first time they replaced the airbag with an identical airbag. The second time they installed a different airbag.

[@mylanmiller9656]

i ran Explorers since 1991 and never had a problem with a Blowout but I never did run My tires at 22 pounds like ford recommended.

[@genehart261]

This guy uses Mother Jones as a source

[@draggonsgate]

Chevy Cobalt/Suzuki Forenza: faulty airbag sensors, won't deploy in some frontal crashes. Ford Pinto/Mercury Bobcat: Weak A-pillars caused extreme crushing in roll overs. Jeep Wrangler: Same issue as Audi, accelerator and brake pedal too close together. Warned to not "heel and toe", remove foor totally from accelerator when braking. Pontiac Fiero: Literally.

[@paule.maurice1521]

My 1976 Chevelle came with * Firestone 500 * Tires . They were real garbage ! GM replaced the tires with Firestone 721 tires , which were excellent

[@jeffreyfwagner]

In the segment on Chev motor mounts it says that it applied stress on the throttle body. Those cars did not have throttle bodies. The mount failure could (at full throttle) cause the throttle linkage to jam up.

[@TheGinger15765]

Bro Takata stillllll has issues on the 07-13 Silverado / Sierra passenger air bags. I do recall all the time on them. They still cant make them

[@brianstough5286]

How many cars had "throttle bodies" between 1965 and 1969?

[@mylanmiller9656]

A Carburate is a Throttle body, to throttle means to control and that is what a Carb Does.

[@Thumper68]

The original GM motor mounts worked just fine they still sell the same style mount today I have a set on my matching numbers 68 RS/SS Camaro and they have been fine for 10+years

[@michaelcesco2970]

Heres my question, would those greedy crooks ln the board rooms drive THEIR cars and trucks or let THEIR family members use them ? Probably not . They know whats wrong with them ! Paying lobbyers to go to court and lie in their behalf, and now bringing this EV crap to us ! GREED HAS NO BOUNDERYS !

[@nofeerz]

Audi got a deceptive attack from 60min you needed to say that twice

[@lesklower7281]

I know have heard a lot about these problems with various car manufacturers even Toyota wasn't amused with its floor mat problem but l never knew about the cobalt accelerated and brake problem why not buy a manual but we never got a lot of these cars in Australia as for the Audi we may have got them but not in big numbers

[@garyleibitzke4166]

That hatchet job (read as bullshit) segment on 60 Minutes about the Audi 5000 should have landed some people at that program in jail. I stopped watching that program.

[@mylanmiller9656]

GM Was the worst they had major Problems, they managed to hide, the Chevy and GM Squair body Pickups were deadly in a Side collision. With the gas tank on the outside of the Frame in a side collision the tank would split open, occupants of both vehicles would burn to death. more than twice as many people Died in the Chevy pickups, than the ones that died in the Ford Pinto. GM never ever did anything to fix it, The Truck was sold from 1973 to 89 with no cure for the fire problem. GM settled all Cases out of Court, with a silence clause in the settlement.

[@Thumper68]

They have the right to fight in court just like we all do innocent until proven guilty. If you know your guilty do you just go tell the judge 😂

[@glennso47]

Only 10 times they lie to us? 😮

The full size Chevrolets had carbys not throttlebodies.

You're right.. Sorry

[@widjojohuang7854]

Every company were like that, because it's an easy profit. And i think every company nowadays, like these car company were like an evil amateur, right?

[@semiretired86]

Chevy Nova rust scandal?

[@bruceh92]

It's funny, but so clear to me now, the Ford Exploder tire is too tall on the sidewall. Just look at the photos on this video of the tire. It's way too tall for what is a car already on high heels. I think they - Ford and Firestone - are both to blame for what is obvious, a bad fit for the car.

[@garyleibitzke4166]

Throttle body on a 1965 - 1969 Chevy? Try again, that vintage had carburetors.

[@classiccardocumentaries]

My bad. Thanks

[@Thumper68]

65-69 Chevrolet didn’t have throttle bodies.

[@morgunstyles7253]

The chevy cobalt and Toyota stories are bull.

Toyota was never able to duplicate the problem, they paid the money to preserve their reputation.

[@corvairjim1]

As a Cobalt SS owner for 18 years, I can say from personal experience that thee was no problem whatsoever with the ignition switch. NHTS claimed that a heavy keyring could cause the key to turn to the off position, but that just isn't possible. And as for driveability with the engine off, the power brake system holds enough vacuum for 3-4 brake applications before losing assist. Yes, power steering goes away, but at anything above parking lot speeds that isn't a factor. Remember that 50 years ago, power steering was optional in cars weighing two or more times what a compact Cobalt weighs. I regularly turn off the engine while driving to save fuel, and I have never had a problem doing so. On another topic touched upon in this video, GM was blamed for the Chrysler/Desoto/Imperial Airflows demise. Actually it was the car's unusual design. The public just wasn't ready for a car that took aerodynamics into consideration to the extent of the Airflow. It was just too radical. When Chrysler moved away from Airflow's advanced styling, even while maintaining many of the other advancements, sles rebounded. For instance, all DeSotos from 1934 through 1936 were Airflows, and their standing in the sales race plummeted. In 1937, they dropped that styling for the much more conventional-looking Airflite design, and sales more than doubled. It was the car's unconventional styling that caused the car's abysmal sales and nothing else.

The Explorer rollover story was hyped by GM to hide the S-10 Blazer's higher rate of rollover.
