A recall for what? There's no safety issue here. There's no functional loss.

Unless they advertised the car as being unstealable or anything close there's not even a marketing point that's not working as one could reasonably expect. Carmakers call this a theft-deterrant feature, they don't even call it anti-theft or similar.

The immobilizer is not as secure as one would hope, but nobody ever promised you anything here in the first place.

What keeps your car from being stolen is not the immobilizer. The government and laws are what keep your car from being stolen.
