Out side of that I have no idea how this works other than car manufacturers are required to report to them the findings and the preventative steps.

So your comment that it isn't important until someone is injured is again misplaced. Tread doesn't intervene after someone is hurt. They regulate and enforce so that no one ever gets hurt. As I understand it. So if someone were to get hurt as part a a warranty trend, then both Tread and the Car manufacturer failed.

Just my opinion...
GTAHAVIT, In my post I was just saying there has to be some point (if the same issue keeps on occurring) when it does become a concern to the TREAD dept. Either a number is reached in amount of issues or perhaps an accident. I was just speculating as to how they come up with a way of determining when to take action. I am not trying to stir anything up here, I am just curious that's all as to how the process works as it relates to the Camaro. And like you said, we don't know for sure this was taking place or done on GM's part at all in following TREAD (however they should have since its the law). It is all speculation at this point to begin with.
