I find it amusing that the GM problem was actually a deliberate design change, to make the switch easier to turn.  Marketing felt
that the old switch was too "notchy" and felt cheap.  The "issue" is that the weight of big wads of keys can actually turn the
modified switch.  So it was the marketing requirement that was defective, not the switch.

But engineering will still get blamed, as usual.
