Radiators for most American Motors (Rambler) cars. They leaked when new.
Burned into my brain is the 1970's-era sight of brand new Harley
Davidson's sitting in a gleaming showroom...with a drip pan under each
bike to protect the floor from the drizzling oil.

some real quality problems in the '60s and '70s.
