Politics aside, Ford is the worst OEM to work with from a suppliers perspective. They care only about cost not quality. Ford will unethically shop a suppliers proprietary technology around to the lowest bidder, typically a sell out to China.

I don't believe Ford only cares about cost and not quality. If that was the case they would not be in business very long. Let alone one of the top auto manufacturers in the world.

Otherwise, every business that wants to remain competetive in the world market shops around for the lowest bidders.

Hmm...I had heard that, 15+ years ago that FORD's std. is 3000 hrs for major component/materials failure...the others (GMC..etc.) were 5000 hrs. :/
