It provided liability coverage to authorized drivers of its vehicles. This coverage was automatic. There was not a separate charge as there was for other coverages such as collision. Self-insured entities informing drivers that they will be covered up to the minimum limits required by the state of the accident do not convert themselves into liability insurers that sell or issue insurance policies and that must comply with the mandatory offering laws. Accordingly, National was not required to offer underinsured motorist coverage to drivers under the self-insured statute, which requires only self-insurers to provide uninsured motorist coverage.
Before they made any decision, they should hold an ethical meeting about the improvement of fuel tank, if they would change their mind by paying more then people would not have to die. In this case, I think Cost-benefit analysis should not be use in this case, because it is very unethical and inhumanity to determine a number of life that have to sacrifice, just because the unwillingness of Ford to pay more for the adjustments of fuel systems. When applying cost benefit analysis in this case study, Ford will either improve the fuel tank or chosen not to go ahead with the fuel tank adjustment, then at least 180 will burn to death, 180 will be injuries, and 2100 vehicles will be burned. Ford was making a decision based on numbers that seems to be right, but it is allowing a certain number of people to die or be injured even though they could have prevented it with paying more for the alteration of fuel tank. This seems to be a disregard for human life.

Often consumers will argue to ensure that they receive the best possible deal in which they will benefit all areas equally. However, when a consumer strives for a lower price, they must be willing to make compromise in other areas such as features and availability.

Making sure that product is manufactured on time (taking into account any delays that may arise from overseas manufacturers) and ready for distribution when the consumer needs it. It is very hard for the dealerships to be able put their names behind a product that is difficult to keep in stock as todays consumers are on a “I want it now” basis. The advantage to this strategy is that if you have marketed and advertised properly, there will be demand at the dealerships from your product. If you are able to keep the dealerships properly stocked, then they will be pleased, as well as the customers and you will make your money back from all that costly advertising.
