This is how buttons work..

Aren’t all of these cars preproduction at this point? Can we say that flex is for sure representative of the final product?

Has anyone noticed the Mustangs going to automotive publications (for review) have xero defects?

Indeed. The stack of $10,000 stuck in the bandana of the reviewer covering his eyes has a remarkable effect on commenting on defects.

From Consumer Reports:

• The cars are carefully selected and inspected by the manufacturers before being sent to the reviewers, to ensure they showcase the best features and performance of the models.
• The cars are preproduction models that may not reflect the final product or the quality of mass production.
• The reviewers may be influenced by incentives or biases from the manufacturers, and may not report or notice the defects in the cars.

geezus, where'd they find the moron who failed materials engineering who didn't bother to support the middle of a long run of weak-ass plastic? Seriously Ford, where are you finding such INCOMPETENT "engineers" and how is it NOBODY noticed the obvious panel flex and immediately required proper bracing?

If you're supposed to 'brush' the white part and people naturally jab the icon, then YOU FAILED HUMAN FACTORS!!!! Where is the visual feedback that you've changed the state of the button? Does it change luminosity, or color? Either at the icon or the pad?

Did they stop teaching human-factors in engineering because everything is a god-damn touch-screen?

Could you please repeat that?

They have been banned so i'd go no they can't
It was mostly a rant on the poor Human Machine Interface / Human factors engineering.
Basically they saw the germans do single panel multi buttons and copied it.

I can honestly say that I have found zero defects on my DH thus far.
