Would Ford’s decision to forego repairing the defective design comply with these ethical guidelines?

 

The Ford  Pinto case is a well-known case that is often discussed in the   context of  business ethics. To summarize, Ford’s design of the Pinto’s fuel   tank was  defective, causing fires if the Pinto was involved in even minor   rear-end  collisions. Ford came to learn of the defect, but the company failed   to correct  it; Ford then predicted, based on a cost-benefit analysis, that it   would cost  more to repair the defect ($11 per vehicle, or $137 million total)   than it  would to pay for damages resulting from burn deaths, burn injuries,  and  burned  vehicles ($47.5 million). Consider the Ford Pinto case in light of  the  who-how  (WH) framework for business ethics.

Would Ford’s  decision to forego repairing the defective design comply with   these ethical  guidelines? If so, why? If not, then what actions should Ford   have taken to  satisfy them? Explain your reasoning.

Your  response to this question should be a minimum of 500 words. Cite any   direct  quotes or paraphrased material from outside sources. Use APA   format

Assignment 1.1: Conflicting Viewpoints Essay – Part I
Prewriting
Due Week 3 and worth 30 points

 

When looking for information about a particular issue, how often do you try to resist biases toward your own point of view? This assignment asks you to engage in this aspect of critical thinking by playing the “Believing Game.” The Believing Game is about making the effort to “believe” – or at least consider – the reasons for an opposing view on an issue.

 

The assignment is divided into two (2) parts.
In Part I of the assignment (due Week 3), you will first read a book excerpt about critical thinking processes: “The Believing Game and How to Make Conflicting Opinions More Fruitful” at http://www.procon.org/sourcefiles/believinggame.pdf. Next, you will review the Procon.org Website in order to gather information. Then, you will engage in prewriting to examine your thoughts.

 

Note: In Part II of the assignment (due Week 5), you will write an essay geared towards synthesizing your ideas.

 

Part I – Prewriting: Follow the instructions below for this prewriting activity. Use complete sentences and adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.

 

  1. Select one (1) of the approved topics from the www.procon.org Website and state your position on the issue.
  2. From the Procon.org Website, identify three (3) premises (reasons) listed under either the Pro or Con section – whichever section opposes your position.
  3. For each of the three (3) premises (reasons) that oppose your position on the issue, answer these “believing” questions suggested by Elbow:
    1. What’s interesting or helpful about this view?
    2. What would I notice if I believed this view?
    3. In what sense or under what conditions might this idea be true?”

 

The paper should follow guidelines for clear and organized writing:

 

  • Include an introductory paragraph and concluding paragraph.
  • Address main ideas in body paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting sentences.
  • Adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.
