Ford Mustang Recall, Crib Recall, Life Recall Next?

Ford Mustang Recall:
Ford is recalling 434,593 2005+ Mustangs. Why? Well, a test on a 2007 car revealed that the airbag deployment force was a bit too strong for “an unbelted, front passenger 5th percentile female anthropomorphic test device.” Ford is asking affected Mustang owners (check your VIN here) to bring their cars in so that the dealer can “update the software in the restraint control module (RCM).”
The government is warning the owners of about 4.6 million recalled Ford vehicles to immediately bring their cars and trucks into dealerships to disconnect faulty cruise control switch systems that have been linked to engine fires.
Crib Recall:
Safety officials announced a recall of 24,000 cribs Thursday and also warned parents against putting their babies to bed with pillows and other soft bedding that could suffocate them. The 24,000 Indonesian-made cribs were recalled for putting children at risk of falling out. The cribs, imported by Munire Furniture Inc., have improper brackets that don’t allow their mattresses to be fully lowered. This could allow children inside the crib to crawl over the railing and fall.
The recall includes the company’s Majestic Curved Top, Majestic Flat Top, Essex, Brighton/Sussex and Captiva cribs with various model numbers. The cribs were sold at children’s specialty stores between November 2005 and November 2007. No injuries have been reported.
They’re purported to recall 470,000 Mustangs! This leaves me wondering, what else are they going to recall? Is anything made safe? I think if they paid people more, they’d get better quality assurance. That’s just my take.
