What is my experience with criticism about the auto industry?
I “get bumped” every day (someone offers criticism) and I have a chance to respond to “getting bumped” every day.

That’s just wrong. Communicate – involve – encourage – promote – include – and continue the trend that was begun so very long ago….
Stay human.
