Did you READ the Press Release ?

What do you think the award was given for ?



I read the press release.....did the press release say if the results were from lab tests or from actual data from the field ?

I work for a large manufacturing company. I have seen our marketing. I am skeptical when a press release quotes numbers but not their source. The reliability numbers (IMO) are probably from a lab test using a transmission on a test stand. The filter reliability was probably a test stand too. I believe they received the results that are posted and won the award. What I don't know, is, are these filters in use now? The press realease was a year ago. How many transmissions have 150000 miles on them this year?

Not saying they are lying. Just saying to read between the lines. Lab results don't always translate into field results. that why I asked " Did it solve the problem?"
