    last year it recalled 2,700 of its first electric vehicles because of concerns the wheels could fall off.

    I set up the production line for this hub unit. This news has been really annoying because it meant we had to scramble to install a bolt press machine on this line.

      It sounds like you’re implying you wouldn’t have had to install it without this news breaking. Is that the case? I’m curious about this topic if you care to elaborate. What is a bolt press machine? How has this news affected you?

        I am hoping it is more of a “they should have seen this coming” kind of thing. In such a way that they should have had ample time before the line was made active to install it.
