A cursory search turns up a lot of people saying that any legal requirement in the US to provide parts outside the warranty period is a myth, although a popular one.
- kbelder 5y agoAnd yet they still are selling the parts, despite that.
- gamblor956 5y agoThey're not required to, nor did I claim they were. They do it because it's good for business, because their vehicles can last for decades and their business practices reflect that.
- perl4ever 5y agoYes, and my point is that they could change their mind if there's no legal constraint. Switching the lineup to electric cars could provide a nice excuse - out with the old, in with the new, we don't want to encourage anyone to use their old polluting vehicle too long. Built up brand equity/consumer goodwill eventually will be exploited, just like spare cash. Was there ever any definitive solution to the Focus transmission problems?
