iFixit wants to fix McDonald’s ice cream machines for good.

    It’s a problem that ultimately McDonald’s doesn’t care to fix.

    If they cared then they would stop using these machines and go with a different manufacturer. They’ve had this problem for over a decade and have had plenty of time to address it. They won’t because they just don’t care.

    People go else where if they want ice cream and it doesn’t seem to bother McDonald’s at all.

      It’s also that franchisees are forced to purchase the machine and get them fixed often under very expensive maintenance plans. McD’s benefits from this due to alleged kickbacks from Taylor.

        So in other words corporate McDonalds is exploiting their franchises? Why am I not surprised.
