ABSTRACT
Over the years, the automobile industry has been continuously bedevilled by the continuous recall of vehicles as a result of manufacturing defects. The recall of vehicles in the automobile industry is not limited to any particular manufacturer. Defective components or parts have always been attributed as the reason for the recalls, while some have attributed it to uncontrolled growth and expansion. For automobile companies to keep up with the growth in the automobile industry, they must be ready at all times to satisfy their numerous customers with quality, reliable and affordable products. Reliability of the product is essential to keep a good customer base. In this chapter six different case studies with different domains of automotive manufacturing units are presented for a better understanding of this subject.
