But he's not talking about it "going out" he's talking about it being out
from the get go.  Brand new.  NEW.  Not used. After 6 months,
a year, yes I would agree, but not when it's still on the floor of
the dealership or has been in the customer's house for 1 day.

Dealers don't inform the customers because they know they can
get away with not doing this work most of the time and pocket
the cash.  Period.  If they informed the customer, then the customer
would rightly expect them to either fix it or discount it.
