I read an article, I think it was in the Wall Street Journal, just a few days ago. Part of the reason for all the recalls is to get people into the dealership, where while they are torquing some "loose" nut holding the windshield wiper, a salesman will try to get you into the showroom.
Apparently they are selling a lot of new cars this way. The article suggested a government investigation into bogus recalls. So that, plus the earlier mentioned "excess of caution" probably explains the many recalls . . .
WSJ articleI did not see where it indicated that the government was investigating bogus recalls. I read where dealers were making advertising that appeared to be similiar to recall notices.
And with the link, everybody can read what was written and interpret the english language themselves.
