Radio/tape Cd Player problems of the 2006 Toyota Scion Tc

My 2006 Scion Tc rear trunk handle broke off. It is a common problem. I had tape holding it on for a year or so, and glued it myself. I did not recieve any recall notice otherwise I would have fixed it. It is not just the handle to get in to the trunk. This is a 18 inch by 6 inch piece of my car hanging by a wire. I just called scion and they said that is was not a recall but a warrenty extenstion that expired 7 years from the date of car being sold or March 2014. Hopefully it stays on and doesn't fly off on the freeway and cause an accident, because then will not be able to have access to my spare tire or get into my trunk. This should be a recall with no expiration date.
