Volvo were very good when I had an engine failure at 27k miles on a Volvo 960 estate due to a block casting fault. Where they had a 100k warranty the engine was free and they just charged me 25% of the labour cost, which worked out at about the same price as the 30k cambelt change.

Can't understand in this day of supreme engineering, that we still get recalls on nearly new cars !!!!
I have just had a recall on my Mazda 6 for rear callipers change Booked in for next week.

Way back BL[or whatever they were called that day]in particular-but others also-were slated for releasing cars too early and leaving it to customers to do the development testing,mainly through their complaints of faults!While recalls have always gone on the numbers these days are quite frightening and can be anything from fuel hose clips[Mondeo]through software updates onwards.

Probably because the yanks will sue if someone forgets to put a sticker on the dash reminding them to breathe in and out!

Like the sticker I saw last year in the ladies beside a hand dryer;  Warning!  This device gets hot!!

I know when my son bought his Focus over in San Francisco he told me it had a sticker on the drivers door window that said some of the materials used on the interior may cause cancer,British ones get no such warning

Probably only turned carcinogenic when exposed to direct sunlight

As a further addition to this I've just read on the my feed bit that pops up when I first fire up the laptop about other recalls[there's 39 listed]from modern to back into the '70s.One of these was for the Mazda 6 which had a recall due to the Yellow Sac Spider -I kid ye not-apparently this developed a love of petrol and built its webs inside the engine which could lead to blockages and fire!
