Certainly you didn't take the time to read carefully for:

1.Even if the word "This" in "This is a production error." was the subject there is no predicate.''' ''' The predicate is "is a production error." 2.When the verb is a form of "be," the sentence will require a word/phrase to make its meaning complete. see here

There already is one. "Andy is a production error." is a complete sentence. 3.Do you not see that the '''only two phrases in that webpage with the word "This" are not complete sentences? They all finish with commas?''' The commas are not there because the first part of the sentence isn't an independent clause. Indeed, "This is a complete sentence." is a complete sentence. The commas are there because the rest of the sentence is a list, which is irrelevant to what we're talking about. 4. Andy reads quickly. This is a complete sentence as it contains a verb (reads), expresses a complete idea and it does not need any further information for the reader to understand the sentence.
 * This is now a complete sentence, <--
 * This is a complete sentence as it contains a verb (reads),<---
 * "Who is Andy? What is he reading? Why is he in such a hurry?" All superfluous information that could be detailed in a book or article of some sort.

So would the answer to your question, "What is a production error?"
