One should be able to investigate the millions of problems ford has had with their ignition switches. This IS not a new problem by any means. Anyone who knows anything about cars knows fords ignition switches have been problematic, to say the least. Theyre famous for this. Its public knowledge. Not a secret.

Seriously, why IS there a saying fire on road daily?*ak
