Baloney. They published a DTB.

This is what warranties are for. If it didn't fail in 4 years/50K miles (or 5 years/100K miles if CPO) you got what you contracted for. You are perfectly free to purchase as much extended warranty as you want.

The DTB contains the range of engine serial numbers affected. I suspect this is worldwide production, so if you count the engines and call it the number of cars, it may not be strictly USA cars.
