There's really no way to prove who is or who is not effected until the problem can reliably be reproduced. How can they recall a car/transmission if they don't fully understand the problem? Four months is a short period of time when testing the theories.

In the grand scheme of things there is a small percentage of cars that have experienced this problem. Collecting information from the customer about when/where/what happened is not 100% reliable as information traverses the process.

It needs to be investigated and proven to conclusively to state the problem. There are thousands of testing hours on these vehicles which go far beyond what we as individuals are willing to do with our cars.

Believe me, I've done some stupid things with this car. One in particular, a complete mistake, was dropping into second gear at 80mph. She bucked HARD and I thought for sure I broke something but alas a couple of thousand miles later... She's fine.

Like UCF w00t said :

Assuming they know exactly which ones are affected (they very well may not have records of it), the biggest factor is some just won't ever break.
