In Calif. anything emissions related is covered for an extended period no matter what the manufacturer says. Since the units are pre-cat and the exhaust passes through them in Calif. they are covered.
They just made it universal in the US.

This explain's why California got the recall... but does not explain why it was applied to the rest of the country, or why Canadian customers shouldn't be afforded the same service. All you said was 'they just did'.
If the recall was made available to all US customers, this means that it's not just because of Calfiornia's stricter emission laws.
