I am well aware of that. Jeep knows that the probability of a 2020 having the issue arise is rare. Ford did the same thing with fuel tank mounting hardware. They limited the recall by vehicles still in warranty and fleet type(police/taxi). The probability of a person sitting in a Crown Victoria on a highway was only high risk for police/ taxi vehicles. The issue is still there with all Crown Vics, but the chances of a civilian vehicle are low. It's a probability decision, if no problem occurred since 2020, it's not an issue to them.

I suppose Billy Bob could have been hired in 2021 and they found the he was doing something wrong during manufacturing. Or like someone said, a vendor change.
I think they likely do a risk to probability matrix to evaluate liability…. ie a math problem.

I don’t see as many Jeeps on fire as much as Teslas and I rarely see a Tesla on fire.
