Front Suspension Control Arm problems of the 2012 Honda Pilot

Front lower control arm bushing failed and started leaking. Honda notified the dealers but not the owners like me see https://static. Nhtsa. Gov/odi/tsbs/2015/mc-10107367-9340. Pdf the warranty extension need to be 10 years not 7 years since 1) this was not communicated to owner 2) this is a quality issue that shows up even before 100k miles 3) warranty extension gave Honda the benefit of 7 years or 100k miles whichever is less when it should be whichever is more since issue happens mainly after year 7 and over 100k miles (public should be protected from this quality issue and not the manufacturer). This will cost the public about 1,200 dollars to repair this defect for something that should be recalled. Honda even issued service bulletin 15-045 https://static. Nhtsa. Gov/odi/tsbs/2015/sb-10107448-9340. Pdf about this issue but never notified owners and the dealer tells me this now that the period has expired.
