haha one of my dads friends had a car i dont recall what kind but it was a 4 door and was assembled in mexico. they had a rattle in the car so they would bring it to the dealer to get them to fix it and after going a few times and it still being there they had the dealer pull out the interior. in the rear passenger side door they found a glass bottle that read "hahaha you found us! suckers!"


quality control?? haha
