So we now need overengineered cars too at double cost to incorporate into price much higher then necessary strength, by extra order reduced failure rate and for potential lawsuits costs against manufacturers, right.

Hi,
My powertrain is stock. Only aftermarket parts I have on my car are the cabin & air filters and floor mats. Clutch bearing is only in use when the clutch is pressed. So whatever the miles on the car, the clutch bearing has only a fraction of that. Let's stick to the same category instead of generalized all lawsuits. When was the last time your wheel bearing went on your car? Or how about crank thrust bearing? Or journal bearings? Why is the clutch bearing an exception?
