 "Dell Blames Sony For Battery Problems")
There seems to be a cold war brewing between Sony and Dell ever since Dell was forced to recall nearly 4.1 million notebooks. Michael Dell started the blame game by saying the blame rests entirely on Sony’s doors saying it was not a misconfiguration on Dell’s part that lead to the batteries overheating and catching fire.
In an interview with Zdnet UK Dell said:
“We know exactly why there was a problem. Sony had contaminated its cells in the manufacturing process,The batteries were contaminated, and were no good no matter what you did with them. We know the batteries under rare circumstances catch fire which is why we recalled them”.
Sony has countered by saying that the full blame should not rest on its shoulders. “It is the configuration. We use the same batteries in our Vaios, and have our own safeguards against potential overheating. Other manufacturers which use the same cells haven’t come forward with any issues.”
