Don't get me wrong, the thought of taking responsibility away from the car owner completely horrifies me, but I recognise that is probably in some way due to the completely alien concept of it. But there are much wider precedences for manufacturers being liable for machinery or items injuring someone (or worse) due to it not behaving in the manner intended and through no fault of the operator/owner (house fires, crane collapses, even children's furniture).
