What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting
Ford is bringing back 350 veteran engineers to supplement AI-driven quality controls after automated systems fell short. The 'gray beard' specialists will hunt failure points before parts reach the plant floor and help retrain AI tools. The company expects about $1 billion in cost reductions this year and has claimed a JD Power quality ranking lead among mainstream brands, signaling improved quality momentum.
