Just got the notice today, My car is apart of the G8's that are being recalled for the delay in the air bags deploying. Not the end of the world, Never really had any issues with the car anyway.

I got the notice a couple weeks ago but I have no plans to bring my car in just for that. I went over a year before they finally did the recall on the TMPS system calibration.

Dropping the pan and draining the fluid is better than a flush. Plus we can do it our self so it's cheaper than a flush.

a flush is fine on a basicly new trans if you follow the maintnace schedule

if you go over the the recamended intervals to a T you are fine.

if the car has 50k or over i would not if it was the frist time it is getting a flush
