How many cars would Ford sell if they said "Here's your car. We've tried to make it reliable enough to get you from A to B, but we won't guarantee that it will..." Guess what, sometimes a Ford breaks down, and Ford guarantees to fix it. They don't guarantee that the car will never break down...

Ford can offer guarantees because they control their manufacturing process completely. We with our SEO hats on are riding the Google horse doing our best to stay on the damn thing and guess which direction it's going to take

The SEO should be in control of the quality of the content and the links built. Good quality content rarely causes a penalty

Ford (and other car makers) outsources most of their components and occasionally they have quality issues, resulting in massive recalls...

This feels like one of those "Yeah! But..." conversations

Yeah! But... Ford still control the processes, can swap out suppliers, can impose quality controls etc, they own the process... SEO'ers do not and never will.
