Default Nissan is recalling certain 2018 nissan 370z vehicles

So I got this notice today from Nissan in my email for my 2018 Z:

Recall notice
AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
5/1/2018
Affecting 22 vehicles

Summary
NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. (NISSAN) IS RECALLING CERTAIN 2018 NISSAN 370Z VEHICLES. THE DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAG MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED INCORRECTLY DURING PRODUCTION, POSSIBLY AFFECTING ITS DEPLOYMENT. AS SUCH, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD (FMVSS) NUMBER 214, "SIDE IMPACT PROTECTION," AND 226, "EJECTION MITIGATION."

Consequence
THE INCORRECT CURTAIN AIR BAG INSTALLATION CAN PREVENT THE AIR BAG FROM DEPLOYING CORRECTLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY.

Remedy
NISSAN WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE CURTAIN AIR BAG, CORRECTING ITS INSTALLATION AS NECESSARY, FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN MAY 1, 2018. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-800-867-7669.

Jeeze Nissan, you finally send me an email, 2 months after you started the recall? If you got the 2018, you better get it checked!
