If you get outside of the US, the worst has to be the Chevy Nova,
which didn't sell well in spanish-speaking countries where no va is
slang for "won't go."

Or maybe VW's thing? Can you imagine calling in to work to say that
you were going to be late because your thing was broken down or
somebody ran into your thing?
