So, in the Bolt saga, an assumption was made that the only bad LG cells were in the ones made in Korea. In early August LG informed GM that they had torn down and found defects in US made batteries that were not yet installed in any vehicles, fresh off the assembly line. So there have now been fires with LG batteries made in China, Korea, the US and potentially Poland (VW ID3). To date, it appears that LG has NOT fixed their production issues, even after Kona and Bolt recalls, which were both discovered over two years ago.So are you positing the theory that Ford and LG were not aware of the battery issues before building our Mach Es?
Would be nice to think they fixed the issue before putting the batteries in the Mach E…
If I were Ford, AUDI, VW or Jaguar, I would NOT trust LG manufacturing process.
