From the article ...

"These are the vehicles that the car makers have tried to get people to bring in, to have them repaired and it hasn’t been done yet," said Jeff Gilbert.


Interesting wording. He doesn't say people whether or not people have brought them in and if not, why they haven't. I went through this Do Not Drive nonsense on a Honda vehicle a few years ago: They tried to get me to bring the car in. They succeeded in doing so, only to tell me they didn't have the parts and could only estimate that they'd receive them sometime in the third-quarter. This was in the late first-quarter.

So going by his verbiage they tried to get me to bring the vehicle in to have it repaired and it hasn't happened yet.*

* Full disclosure: it might have been done by now, but I jettisoned that car - to a knowing Honda dealer (who I suspect is given parts-availability priority so they can sell the ones people have ditched) as quickly as I could after being advised to not drive my vehicle.
