Data presented to NHTSA during the recall process was based on USA warranty claims for 2003 and later cars with *both* new hardware and software. After 2003 and prior to the recall, all cars with hardware replaced under warranty (which would be most of them) were to have new software installed *prior* to replacement, with diagnostic readouts reported before replacement. To the best of my knowledge, there is *no* data for new design DICs with the original software. There is data for the reverse: 2003 V6 models do not have updated hardware from the factory, but they do have updated software. Their failure rate was reported to be about half that of the 2002 V6 models with old hardware and old software.
