I think it's like any production system, the assembly occurs with initially sourced parts, and when issues with supply quality arise, it gets injected at the beginning of the process, and whatever is in stock or moving in the assembly line already, have to 'flush out' before the issue is fully resolved. If they have capital, they also remove existing questionable parts from stock before they reach the beginning of the assembly line.

It's common practice, happens with any mass production assembly line. They deal with the call-backs appropriately, and aren't really denying the issue(s). Smaller companies don't replace existing stock, and continue to inject the know defective parts into the assembly process. That's not cool, but it's 'business'.
