I'd say it's definitely an isolated incident. The issue with Moto has never been widespread hardware problems, it's been the craptastic bloatware that VZ brought to the party.

Motorola Droid RAZR HD Seems To Be Suffering From Screen Issue?

Also let's not forget Motorola didn't manufacture the display....guess who? Samsung in all likelihood. So how about keeping an open mind about this and let's not blame the phone manufacturer for a very likely faulty and defective display that they buy from a third party manufacturer.

Actually, Ford is at the bottom of reliability ratings for 2012 with their junk automatic dual clutch transmissions. Far from the very best. As far as the bionic fiasco, there hasn't been one for me. The update to ICS was slow, but other than that its been a rock solid phone, along with my Droid x that my dad is still using. Can't say the same for friends with Samsung and HTC.

Some reviewers have been pointing out that the RAZR MAXX HD may not be all it's cracked up to be. Again, judgement is in the eye of the beholder. But some are reporting smeared, kinda like when you press down on an LCD screen and see an array of rainbow colors. But just something to keep in mind before you buy... test all your choices and make sure it's what you want!
Think this will affect your decision?

Ah, I actually had this with mine, and my original Droid Razr. Only happened once with the Razr HD, coming out of sleep when I turned the screen on. Turned off screen and turned it back on and it was fine...
I don't keep an open mind about things like this.. there's a lot of third party stuff in phones and its up to the company who slaps its name on it to do its due diligence.. when my "gorilla glass" screen has a scratch in it... I don't blame gorilla glass... I blame Motorola because I bought a motorola phone and they chose to add that to the product... same goes for any company whether its cars computers TVs or a microwave

Your Gorilla Glass has a scratch because you had grit/sand/etc in your pocket or elsewhere that scraped across the screen. Gorilla Glass isn't scratch-proof, just resistant, and blaming Moto for that is about as silly as it gets. I thought I'd heard it all, but that's a new one.

Second that. Sand will scratch gorilla glass. And yes, Ford's do kinda suck. Had a Mazda van (Ford product with a Mazda sticker on it) & it was terrible . Replaced it with a Toyota and what a difference. Doubt I will ever buy 'American' again.
my gorilla glass has a scratch from the menu button going across the screen.. its hardly some sand... when I'm done w this phone I won't be thinking of every single 3rd party that made parts in and out of this phone that I didn't like.. just the overall of it
now this is sillier to me... you bought a Mazda.. regardless of whos parts it had... it was their product.. they put their name on it.... in this situation I wouldn't buy Mazda's again... I wouldn't ditch all American companies for it

I want to show you some love because you're a Cowboys fan but your misguided ideas on how scratch-resistant glass works are a bit silly. I assure you the scratch you have on your phone could have occurred on any device. If it worries you then in the future I suggest you get a screen protector by Skinomi or someone else. Works quite well.

Unless gorilla glass got worse I love it on my thunderbolt. It's been dropped numerous times sometimes on it's face but no scratches. Never cracked. The back and battery seperate before the glass cracks or scratches.

Nope, Mazda MPV was basically a Ford Winstar with some slight changes & the windstar was a piece of junk. Didn't know it when I bought it though. Yes, Ford owns Mazda and does this with some of their products, hence it would take a lot to convince me to buy either brand again.
Owned Fords & never had a good one. My sister has owned nothing but GM products for years with, guess what, nothing but problems. Now my Nissan & Toyota; totally different story. So, the Mazda was really the last straw. I guess I shouldn't say I'll never buy an 'American' car, but they would need to change their manufacturing techniques and business models first and that probably won't happen in my lifetime.

I doubt it was new. It was most likely a refurb. This is pretty much the standard of every company. It would take them far to long to fix and repair your specific unit, so they send back another defective unit that was already repaired. Now it is not impossible that it was new, but not that likely in my experience.
Actually Ford is at the bottom of customer satisfaction lists at this time.
You might be surprised to know your Toyota has more American parts in it then a Ford, well atleast when it comes to a Ford Crown Vic vs a Toyota Camary, and I assume that applies across the board. My brother in law is in charge of logistics for a Toyota plant so I think he would know.
