With only 56 vehicles total between Thunderbirds and the Lincoln LS recalled, I can't imagine anyone not getting that taken care of right away, when they received the notice. Considering the potential liability, I would bet Ford monitored it closely to make sure they all were replaced

yes, It was only a week's worth in February as I recall. Most were caught at the factory.
