I'm not familiar with US auto regulations but I do believe manufacturers have some regulatory pressure (as in if they don't fix a problem the car will be deemed not roadworthy), but the bigger perception is probably just what the public thinks. You won't sell many new cars and the used value will plummet if these issues persist.
