No, it's true, liability issues. We saw it happen with Thunderbird. Heck they even destroy used office furniture rather than give away. Local legend goes like this. Guy buys rolling, swivel desk chair at garage sale. Uses it to stand on to reach shelf at home. Chair swivels and rolls, he falls, gets hurt. Underside of chair has brass property ID plate, says Ford Motor company...guy sues, legend never mentions outcome.
