I have a friend who is a metallurgist for a very large OE auto parts supplier (you'd know the company). He went to China to investigate a failure problem. This plant is totally controlled by them and is certified every way imaginable. Suffice to say what he found was shocking. He said it made their Latin American plants look like world beaters in comparison. Things that would NEVER fly in a US factory. I have heard too many of these stories from too many people to trust life saving gear made in China. Anyone want to bet where the Kong rings that failed were made? My toaster or fish aquarium sure, but gear I depend on for my life, no gracias.
PS nothing "racist" about pointing out facts, grow up. It's a fact China has huge quality and intellectual property issues. That doesn't condemn the poor guy working in the factory, it's just a fact of their evolution as a manufacturing economy.
