IMHO this could happen to any company at any time so allowances should be made.
My car had been fixed at Morgan by the time I purchased it so thankfully I missed the carnage.


I believe most car manufacturers are reliant upon outsourced component's such are brake and radiators and are in essence just assemblers of motor vehicles some elements in house others sub contracted purchases. The issue becomes one of design specification, quality control and inspection during assembly, adequate PDI and then what defects reporting occurs during servicing of customer vehicles thru the dealer network.

In my experience too often the Morgan infrastructure and dealerships are too ready to call something a characteristic of a Morgan 'they all do that' when on occasion it is something much more serious, as with the CX.
