Recalls are more of a safety issue and are for more immediate and urgent matters. With the fix costing several thousand dollars per vehicle a doubt they will ever make this a recall. On the other hand all recalls start out as a TSB until more information on the scope of the affected vehicles can be determined. If it becomes a recall every vehicle will be handled not just warranty vehicles.

The same complaints happened with the rear diff breakage. Owners demanded that a recall be put into place and everyone was complaining that they don't want to get broken down in the desert, walk it out to civilization and get eaten by buzzards in the process. A recall hasn't happened yet and I doubt it will ever come to that. Remember this is a car company not a charity.

Because if I'm right, the cracking will ecentually happen to all unreinforced aprons & wheel wells.

I thought mine was just a small bulge...but when the factory rep put it on the lift & scraped the undercoating away, I could plainly see a CRACK.

Now if this was left alone and continued, eventually your going to have gaping rips and it will turn into a safety issue.

Time will tell-These are all suppositions at this point.
