Description of the problem	Engine check warning did not come on. I brought the car in for annual service and am informed a throttle and gasket are bad. No engine warning notice but they found it in the code. Car is at dealer. I'm concerned how long this has been a problem and if it caused any other issues.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
