You know, if they'd just included a tiny hamster to power the zoom lens, this whole issue could have been avoided. Internal failure cost for sure!

Definitely internal failure cost. The manufacturer messed up the assembly, and that's on them to fix.

Haha, sounds like the camera just needed a little extra gear grease! But in all seriousness, I'd go with internal failure cost on this one.

I disagree, I think this would be considered an external failure cost. The customer had to deal with the issue after purchasing the product.

The issue with the zoom lens seems like an internal failure cost to me. The manufacturer should have caught this during their quality control checks.

But wouldn't it also be considered an External Failure Cost since it was discovered by the customer?
