Be good to know some stats as to % of failures and if its high mileage cars with lots of wear and tear vs. the luck of the draw bearing can go at any point scenario?
This sounds like the Toyota acceleration scare a few years ago, turned out to be more hype with a few incidents than the majority of the cars.
To me, the facts are everything and BS is worthless. Why isn't there a recall on this by the NHTSA.

I think I recall reading that only about 20% of cars are effected by failure, and it tends to be more the low mileage, seldom driven cars.
