Okay, that makes sense. I honestly thought the HPFP recall was the same way after reading about it, since it posed a potential safety hazard, but maybe not.
Now that I read a little more, I do see that it is a "voluntary safety recall." My car does have some long cranks every once in awhile, but that just may be my imagination after buying a new car.
