Just reacting to this: > Given how extreme the American reaction to the VW scandal was I do wonder what the response would have been if that company had been GM, Ford or Chrysler There were recalls related to GM (GM ignition switch recall - 30M cars worldwide) or Chrysler (just recently [1]) too. ..you are right, these are more dangerous things like cheating the emissions. However, I believe they are not showing favor toward US companies. There are recalls of Fiat-Chrysler cars too because of cheating on emissions [2]. However, they are not affecting millions of cars as in VW case.
