According to the article I read yesterday they are adding stronger glue and a bolt.

That is also what this article says.

Although a single bolt is going to need to be quite strong to hold down a long piece of steel exposed to high speed wind regularly.

Let's hope they won't cheap out on those bolts. Thankfully cheaping out on everything is not an habit they have, right?

They probably had some office assistant order a pallet of bolts from Home Depot.

This is the company that glued the accelerator pedal on, you think they know what grade of bolt they need?
