But crappy cars do create opportunity for mechanics. Whether that's good or not is another story.

Disagree, M'Lud
Those cars will create a small blip in short term repair requirements, but ultimately consumers will shun the shoddy products. This will result in an overall reduction of opportunities for mechanics with those skills. There will also be a small proportion of potential consumers who will question the need for a car at all, thereby reducing mechanics opportunities across the board.
