This has got to be the most ridiculous recall ever issued. America's NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) had ordered for the Cooper S' recall for those manufactured since 2007 for a reason that would've been unthinkable in the rest of the world - Tailpipes that protrude slightly from the rear bumper.The reason? They're afraid passer by who inadvertently burnt themselves on the leg might somehow developed serious depression complications, and then results in suffering lower self esteem with scarred legs, and perhaps being further rejected by the American society and subsequently turning themselves into serial killers that hunt on people with perfect scar-free legs, mutilate them and feed it to cows which then develops Dumb Cow Disease and exported to the rest of the world and subsequently killing half of the world's population, and with less weight on the Northern Hemisphere, the Earth might tilt out of its axis and catapult out of orbit leaving the sun behind, wiping out mankind.
With consumers who ordered hot coffee and then spilled it on themselves suing McDonald's for not informing them that their (and won the case), its no wonder BMW is very happy to quickly solve this 'MINI' issue, as there's no telling which law firm in US would have picked up the news and quickly look for some vagabonds just to hit their annual 'sales' target. What's next? How about warning signs on Chopper's exhaust? Or warning signs on your T-Bone steak stating 'Do not swallow before you chew'?
