I don't get it. The OP said "I ignored it". Okay, so Dahon didn't contact him in the first place and he became aware of the recall from reading about it in a bike shop. Yes, Dahon dropped the ball, but once the OP knew about it why would he then ignore that and then blame Dahon for his decision to ignore it?
