why is this news now? i began getting recall notices about a month after i got my '01 GTP a few years ago... but i ignored them, because i had already put valve cover gaskets in it and they weren't leaking. i went to the dealer to get them to take my car off the recall list because i had done the repair myself, and was told that they had to do it to get my car off the list... so i told them to just keep wasting money sending me notices because i was never bringing it it.. i traded that car to my brother (not a car guy) last summer, and he called me all worried when he got the first notice and i told him to just throw them away because i had fixed it and the car wasn't leaking oil... he freaked out and took it in for the repair because he's easily spooked and thought his car was going to explode, wasting everyone's time in the process.. but while he was in there, the nice dealer techs were kind enough to point out that it needed new front wheel bearings, brake pads, and lower balljoints- all things that i had replaced with the best available aftermarket pieces available a couple of months earlier. i told him to never go back there for anything again, because they were trying to scam him for stuff that didn't need to be done.. i hate dealerships..
