I'm sure it's bad and all, but don't recalls happen for car models all the time? BMW "recalled" my car a bunch of times; what it meant was, if I didn't get the car to the shop for a free repair, I'd have a harder time suing them if the (I think it was the) gas pump caused the car to explode.

I think the story here was that it was 3.8 million cars. That's high enough to get it into the top 10 car recalls, of all time. Top is probably the 10+ million cruise control switch issue Ford had to recall on virtually all 1993+ cars.

Did they reimburse you for the lost time? If not, you should sue them. That being to only thing companies care about.
