There are some vehicles out
There are some vehicles out there where you can have an expectation that they will last and last. For example, I know of one 1989 Honda that's trundling around Central California daily. The mileage is somewhere over 400,000 and climbing. The car the driver gave up -- and to his son -- was a 1993 Mazda that had had lighter use and only had about 350K on the clock. The last I knew it was running fine, as well. The point to this is that there are lots of old cars out there that just keep on rolling. But, I have to agree with you that there's a point where it's not on the manufacturer anymore. I think 15 years max is a good compromise in a situation like Toyo's where there's a known problem. I can see your point, though. There comes a point where it is the owner's responsibility, no matter how good the manufacturer is.
