they could easily put this fire out, theres still time.




sure they could, and yes there is...
i'm sure they're only looking at the immediate bottom line at this point. any major manufacterer would have issued a recall. that would likely be very expensive and it also admits that the problem is widespread. instead they choose to replace studs individually which will cost them far less money for the immediate future.
i'm convinced they'd rather let a few engines desintegrate rather than admit any fault.
