Description

Over a million vehicles recalled this year. For engine failure. Not fender benders. Not infotainment glitches. Engines. A brand-new SUV, and the connecting rod breaks before it even hits twelve thousand miles. Owners waiting months — sometimes longer — for a replacement engine that's on backorder, on a vehicle they bought two years ago. And in one active lawsuit, the claim isn't just "the engine dies." It's that the same defect can start a fire. In a truck someone's still making payments on. Think about that for a second. This is happening right now. In 2026. And most of it hasn't made the news yet.
