The date range is the dates every affected car was assembled.
I believe it, Jim, Ive just owned many new cars, and had TSBs and recalls, that havent been named, but fell under the range of affected vehicles, and had high pressure fuel pumps, quit and leave me stranded on the highway, with 800 miles on the car. Ive been there. I have next to zero trust when it comes to this type of issue.

It's either that or providing a 10 year warranty like Porsche did
10 year warranty would be fair.
I hear you. Just trying to cheer you up. I really have no idea!
