In 2014 we exposed the concealment of a deadly defect that General Motors kept hidden since 2002. That defect killed my daughter in 2005 and many after. My top goal was to make the cost of not recalling so expensive that GM will think twice about doing that again. That ignition switch recall shown at minute 14:30 suggests we may have hit that goal.

I feel as though the Tylenol recall should have been higher on the list. The saddest part, is that it took SEVERAL deaths for the pharmaceutical companies to make tamper proof seals on medicine to prevent further deaths. The person or people involved in the case was sadly never caught...

This is a list for most EXPENSIVE recalls, not most impactful. Yes, the deaths were high, but this wasn't the focus of the list.

Hehe, my sister had an Easy Bake Oven way back in the 80's when we grew up. Suffice to say, it did predict the future. Somehow, she always managed to burn everything she put in there. I have no idea how either. But, usually I could tell if she was using it as I'd smell burnt cookies or cakes. And she still can't cook at all or even make food. Our mother makes a really good item called 'Spaghetti Salad,' which is basically cooked spaghetti, russian dressing, tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, and red onions. It's really good and easy to make. Somehow she managed to make it into this mess of noodle mush with soggy vegetables, and the mush had absorbed all the dressing.

[@irishpixierose]

My first car was a 76 Pinto. When I heard about the gas tank problem I ordered a tank shield from Ford and had it installed. Shortly after that installation the recall was issued. I took my car to the dealer expecting a refund for the already installed shield. Instead the mechanic told me it was difficult to install the second shield with the already installed one 😏 The video didn't mention the Hartz flea spray recall. My cat, Sinbad, had the worse reaction our vet saw. He was bouncing of the walls at home. Hartz sent me a check for $25 dollars to compensate. The vet bill was much higher since he had to stay at the vet to be watched and treated. I believe it damaged his kidneys too. We never cashed the check. Our Toyota Camry was recalled for the gas pedal, visors (twice) one still won't work & dashboard. They never completed the visor replacement properly and refused to make it right. I never received the dashboard recall and they refused to take care of the problem.

That one didn't work as well and seemed as if there might be a battery issue with it at times (occasionally lightly buzzing and getting hot while charging, etc.). Then an OTA update was pushed saying the phone was going to be bricked within 60 days, so I ordered a Pixel to replace it. This was when the original Pixel was incredibly backordered, so 5 days before the phone was going to be auto-bricked and still not ETA for the Pixel, we replaced it with a LG V20 (barf). The Verizon store wouldn't even take the phone, and we were provided a triple-layered/insulated box to ship the phone back.

[@pooky-changaming4089]

Thank heavens your grandmother and little brother recovered! I’ve had food poisoning before (in late summer 2014)-it’s no laughing matter! I was in the hospital for two days on IV fluids and anti-diarrheal/anti-nausea meds. Luckily, I felt much better by the time I was discharged.

From my understanding is that Ford basically instead of admitting wrong with the Ford Explorer they simply founded it cheaper to blame it on Firestone

Both Ford and Bridgestone/Firestone were at fault-but yeah, I get it.

What about the Boing 737 max recall. It tops almost everything we see here.

[@tgfan458]

The Max wasn’t a recall, it was an ‘Airworthiness Directive’ requiring it to receive a software upgrade and get better pilot training. The planes are back flying as normal now.

[@tomoore1776]

@@tgfan458 that Boeing stock at a discount right now.

[@muralipoojithvutukuri781]

@@tgfan458 It wasn't just a software upgrade. If it was they wouldn't have recalled every plane. They have installed additional sensor to detect the angle of attack.

[@tgfan458]

@@muralipoojithvutukuri781 Recalling means to return all the products from the consumer to the manufacturer. The Max jets were just grounded wherever they were, until the defect was rectified. Which they are fixed now and flying normally and quite successfully too. Trust me, as a manager for Amazon, whose father works for Boeing Defence, I know a thing or two about recalls and the MCAS program.

[@muralipoojithvutukuri781]

@@tgfan458 How can you expect the consumers to return the product to its manufacturer when the product itself was banned from flying. Since recall is not an option in this case, boing staff reached out to the grounded planes around the world to fix the errors before they got certified to fly. Apart from the technical meaning of recall, this is the most costliest mistake made by a company that required every product to be fixed to minimise the errors.
