Now lets see how long it takes for the paperwork to go through DC "legal
department" and then out to the customer. It's official as per media...ya
have to wait for the final paperwork though.

Yep, it's official:

I'm glad that they are finally admitting to the problem. I suspect they
will probably end up recalling more vehicles now that they have admitted
publicly that there is definitely a problem.

I wonder how long it will be before I can get this done. I'm calling my
dealer on Monday... I'm also curious if they're going to replace them with
the same type or if they will be greasable. (I'm hoping for the latter, but
not holding my breath..)
