I think Marlin's recall is probably a first in the kit car industry (I could be wrong but I don't ever remember another one) so this is unchartered territory for them and for those it affects. You can't compare this to mainstream manufacturer re-calls, it's chalk and cheese. They don't have dealer networks and thousands of mechanics at hand to put things right, they don't have an extensive R&D department to examine the cause of these failures and produce a quick turnaround (and since when have mainstream manufacturers taken less than 6 months months to publish a re-call) I'm sure Marlin will do their upmost to put things right. They are trying their best, give them some slack.
