   GM: Rolling Corvairs and full size cars that broke motor mounts and   
   locked the steering.   
   Several hundred dead.   
   Ford: Exploding mustang gas tanks in the '60's which Ford knew about   
   and remedied by making the Pinto.   
   Several hundred more dead.   
   These issues were known by the car makers before the cars were sold.   
   Their accountants calculated that the loss of life, lawsuits etc would   
   cost less overall than the $15 to $17 a car it would have cost them to   
   make them safe.
