Look, DCX isn't stupid. They read the forums. They had a pretty good idea what the questions were gonna be, right? I mean, at least the ones that really matter. I'm sure the engineers got briefed to spit out a canned response, verbatim, on the issues relating to the new pads. Why? Well, I remember someone in the forums remarking that DCX can't afford to fix them twice, and that being the reason that they were taking so long to produce a fix in the first place. And if either an engineer screwed up or a bean counter cheaped out, resulting in an "improvement" that covers them legally, but doesn't make us happy...well, they're not going to dump millions into a second fix. And if that's the case, they're going to be unequivocal about it. Whatever the party mantra is regarding the difference between our ideal fix and the fix they've released....well, anyone stepping out of line on their side, and leaving room for the interpretation that more is possible, will be crushed harder than Speckler was.

Here's what I think:

1. Dust: They don't care, never will.

2. Squeal: This new pad is supposed to fix it...right?

3. Premature Rotor Wear:
-Will this new pad reduce the percentage of cars that experience this?
-If the number of people reporting this is small enough, they'll try to call it "abuse" and void the warranty.
-Even if the number of people reporting it is large enough that they can't entirely ignoe it, it would take a class action suit to get a second fix. Good luck with that
