    ^^^
    I know what you mean, and I agree with you na at least, mabuti obvious na biglang kumalas na lang under "light" use. Ibig sabihin palpak talaga yung design/gawa.

    What I'm saying is, mahirap makipagsapalaran sa mga kotseng dubious ang quality. Gagastos ka na nga lang, yung pangit/alanganin pa bibilhin. Pareho naman halos presyo sa ibang kotse. If sa highway nangyari yung incident na yan, malaking sakuna sigurado.

    actually,
    when i first saw the images,
    it thought it was soldered and not welded.
    heh heh.

    It was spot-welded, looks like it.The presence of surface rust along the supposedly solid interface seems to suggest that there was an air gap between them and has been like that for at least a while prior to the incident.

    Serpentza featured it...

    i can see it now,

    worker 1 : "hey, bud, it's almost lunchtime. i'll just spot-weld this, then have lunch, then properly weld it all round afterward."
    worker 2 : "ok, bud."

    worker 1 never came back to finish the job.
    then worker 3 came along : "now, who left this here? it should have been brought to the pile of 'finished welds' over there. i'll bring it there myself."

    heh heh.

    A robot's work is only as good as what its human programmer wants it to do.

    hindi spot welded yan. spot welding is used on join thin body panels together. it looks like MIG

    i do MIG (w/ shielding gas) at home here's a fairly recent weld that i did. there are a lot of variables that could affect weld quality: wire speed, voltage, surface prep, poor grounding, worn out tips, etc

    Weld preparation is poor. The WPS should have clearly specified what's to be done.

    Given that this is a critical car component, a bevel should have been applied first to achieve a full penetration weld, or a fillet weld should have been completed around the entire joint.
