How a part that costs less than $1 can derail a six-figure automobile.

 

That's what I was thinking.

 

The brake system was a purchased item and that vendor made the issue.

 

The result of ignoring actual customer incidents.

 

Now I am going to have to go in my garage and check out the caps on my 6 Ferrari's. What a bummer!

 

You only have 6? Pffffffttt…peasant.

 

Every Master cylinder I have been around has a vent. Some have a diaphragm between the cap and the fluid but it has to be vented. They would not have gone this far without something venting. It may be that the vent may become plugged over time due to the design but if not vented, brakes would have stopped working long before the first pads wore out.

 

So this was the secret of Wrecked Exotics never ending content.

 

The magnitude of this recall is really pretty small overall.

 

Yeah, the only people it affects might be late for their polo game.

 

To me it's the fact at how simple that part is and they somehow messed it up.

 

That seems to still be the case in some instances. My WL had a recall to check the seat frame where a child seat is attached. It was to check if a weld got missed. Ours was fine, but I'm glad they checked it just the same. In today's world a kid has to sit in a child seat until puberty it seems.

 

Our grandson still has to ride in one and he's 8. It's based on weight here in Tennessee.

 

Seems a bit silly. By their same standards wouldn't midgets have to be in one as well since some of them weigh as much as a child.

 

I literally had thousands of miles sitting on Dad's knee steering the family cars by the time I was 8. He ran the pedals of course but rarely ever had to correct my steering.
