      Ford recalls 1.3m cars because steering wheels might fall off.

      That's pretty bad.

      Could be worse, they could have not recalled them.

      Like my care, otherwise known as a rolling fire hazard. Known issue with the headlight connector shorting out, I've had it happen to both sides now. It's so comforting to know that GM doesn't give a ****.

        There was a joke about FORD.

        Found on road dead
        Fixed or repaired daily

        Now it's just F* off road death-trap

        Honestly. . . Ford can't fix anything. . .

        The steering wheel might fall off. . . seriously!

              Um. . . some asshole isn't worth going to prison for. Leave him and find someone who isn't a PoS.

                Had she been able to buy a gun, he'd be dead. That's a miracle as it is.

                  All he did was play video games. Only PoS thing we know he did was date her.

                    And he's lucky he did have "practice" from those games or she could have killed him... for what? Suspicion?
                    She should be jailed for life.

                      I'm curious to know what exactly she thinks she is not guilty of? It seems quite clear she is guilty of attempted murder.

                        Bridge at Florida International University just collapsed onto the highway. Many fatalities, unknown numbers of people trapped under the collapsed span. Miami-Dade area.

                          That's terrible. Brand new bridge, too.

                            They had just put it in because someone had been hit while trying to cross the highway.

                              Tragic. There are jokes here, but the timing is just not right yet.

                                How the heck does an unused, brand new bridge collapse so soon. Who cut corners here that caused this?

                                    I agree. Too many corners had been cut to cause this kind of tragedy so soon.

                                        Wtf, you can tell just by looking at it... that it won't hold up. I'm surprised it didn't collapse under it's own weight after setting it up!

                                          It kinda did.

                                            We probably shouldn't mention the sub, sub-sub, sub-sub-sub-contractor issues that have existed in South Florida for several decades.
                                            No I don't have a link. Sorry.
