Default new saftey recall

brake pedal switch may fail.
During vehicle assembly, the steering column
telescopic mechanism may have been over-lubricated
with silicone grease. Over time, some of this grease
could form into oil droplets that drip onto the brake
pedal position switch connector. If this happens, the
brake pedal position switch may fail, resulting in no
brake lights, and an increased risk of a rear-end
collision. In addition, a failed brake light switch could
prevent the shift lever from moving out of Park
(vehicles with A/T), or disable the auto-stop feature
(Civic Hybrids).

Some of these recalls are so petty lol.

"headlight glass might be thin, possibly causing breakage when hit with a stone which could send chards of glass flying and possibly into the driver open window and into the eye. This in turn could lead to an increase in the chance of collision and eye dissorders, please return your car for headlight strengthening"

I bet that there would be more cars smashed while taking the recalled car to the dealership then there would be vehicles who have a fault caused by the recall. lol. Think about it
