They're your brand evangelists -- I'll say it again, the true believers. They're your strongest ally when you're in a pinch. So, why would you screw them over? Is it so difficult to imagine that they could just as easily turn into your harshest critic?

I'm an engineer, not a marketing guy, but this is all so obvious to me.
you are very right, I love the way this car handles and how it is, i am one that would stick by the manufacturer and its product. I hope that they will not throw out the true enthusiasts who are willing to work with them co-operatively.

One example, i get asked about this car often and how it is. I have always praised the best aspects of the car without bringing to the table the dreaded CEL issues, Tail condensation, chirping, etc.
