Despatch: 110,000 Patrol Cars to Return to HQ

While the AP copy shed little light on the details of the scenario, "Ford Motor Co., the second-largest U.S. automaker, is recalling Crown Victoria Police interceptor sedans to fix wheels that may develop cracks leading to rapid air loss in the tires." The point of their piece made sense enough.

FoMoCo calling back 109,664 patrol cars built at Ford's Ontario assembly plant between 10/01 to 12/04. And why exactly is Ford celebrating this and other dismal news by awarding its executives bonuses?

Clearly, quality wasn't job one.
