As one of the largest economic sectors in the world, the automotive industry touches us in a way unlike any other. With 263 million cars n the road, the U.S. leads the world in automotive registrations. Yet for an industry so large, relatively little is known by the consuming public. In 2010, Jonathan Michaels began a journalistic investigation into indiscretions in the automotive industry. This investigation let to 101 published articles that reveal much about the industry that few had previously understood. From the truth about lithium to the irregularities in the nation's recall system. Michaels' investigative work presents a probing, unvarnished view into an industry that impacts so many, yet is understood by so few.
