For the first time starting in 2019 Ford Motor Co. will export vehicles from China to the U.S.. The automaker plans to move the production of its Ford Focus small car from U.S. to China.

After GM finally admitted that 3.64 million vehicles in the U.S. are equipped with airbags, which could possibly not deploy, a large recall of it has started. People are afraid of crashes which might happen with anyone, and in a critical moment the airbags which need to deploy, won't. General Motors was forced to announce a recall of numerous 2014-17 models, on which the issue needs to get fixed, because it could also disable seatbelt pretensioners. Of course, there are still some circumstances which remain as a mystery to us, for example why they have found out about the proble...
