A bunch of cars across many manufacturers were recalled in the 2010's due to a defect in the airbags made by the same manufacturer.

One could also argue that the OS is the car, the browser is the chauffeur, and the user is the passenger.

With regard to browsers, I think we need more manufacturers, not just the GM (Google/Chrome) of browsers. I want Ford in there as well. (Sticking with US automotive companies).
