The automotive market is evolving – engineers are constantly developing new technologies that aim to improve the safety, reliability, and performance of both drivers and vehicles alike. And they’re doing it against tight timelines and budgets. However, with cutting-edge and complex innovations comes the opportunity for defects ranging from simple road noise problems to the more hazardous defects like faulty airbags. 

Defects not only have the potential to endanger the user of the vehicle, but can also result in recalls and damaged brand reputation for automotive manufacturers. With a 42% rise in automotive recalls since 2014, it’s crucial to understand the common causes behind defects and how to accurately identify them.
