[V8] KD, KF recalls

[urq]

... been a while, but ISTR the V8 was a bit more complicated than that ... 
pretty sure the car originally had two separate boxes for the airbag, which 
were integrated into a single module for the recall ...

I know that when I took #344 in they indicated that there was something 
special about that particular VIN ... took the dealer 3 tries to finally get 
it done ... I even got to have a rental car for a couple days ... *for an 
airbag recall!*  This was the time that all their messing around damaged the 
antenna lead for the rear window mounted antenna ...
