Maybe they will do a recall on the recall.
My point was that people seem to think that NHTSA is somehow going to help them fight Subaru/Toyota in getting the repairs covered for free or make them do it "right". They aren't. That isn't what they do. Yes if they feel it is a safety issue they will say as such but that is far as their "help" will go.
