is simply WRONG !!!

The mail you forwarded is an obvious attempt to take advantage of the
American public's enormous gullibility when it comes to email received ...
seems no one ever checks the references ...
You can read more about how wrong it is at
http://www.snopes2.com/rumors/cars.htm, or at almost any of the slandered
manufacturer's web sites.
