But those 43 people are totally screwed. They want to re-powdercoat the tridium safety cage. If you don't know what that is, it's basically a roll bar cage that's on the outside of the car that protects you in a crash. OK, to powdercoat, you have to bake in an oven. This mean every single part in that entire car has to be removed, cage redone and then put back together. Any extra parts after the install are placed in a bag left in your car

The process has been quoted as taking 2 months and because they love you, they will get you a cheap rental car while it's out.
You tell me, would you want that car after it's gone through that process? I wouldn't, because two years later when the warranty is bye-bye, you may find some bolt lose, parts missing, electrical connectors that came lose, who knows. At least in CA you can lemon the car for being out for more than 30 days and force them in court to give you a replacement.
