I think the increase in recall's and faulty engineering in modern Auto's is the result of going straight from computer modeling to production, with no testing or proof of concept, optimized for lows costs and ease of assembly. Probably young engineers managed by bean-counters, with no practical experience.

I concur completely!!!!
I'd love to know how long it takes them to get something from concept to showroom floor these days.

They've learned it's cheaper to deal with issues that may pop up later, rather than ensuring there are no issues during development. This seems to be the case for all the manufacturers.
