I didn't read shebang, but how is the number of recalls relevant for only the first quarter of the year? There's a reason that we use a full year for things like this... averaging. Remember when Ford recalled 1 million vehicles in one shot a while back? That's one million recalls in one day... that's like... 365 million cars in a year! Have they even made that many ever???
I really don't care about GM or Toyota honestly. I just hate when I see people abusing numbers. This article reads less like news (ie. stating facts) and more like a persuasive essay.
