I think you are right

I just checked autotrader, and it says the same thing:

"Is there a time limit on recalls? New recalls cannot be issued for vehicles more than eight years old. There is no deadline that applies to when drivers can bring their vehicles in for the recall repair, though since recalls usually pertain to safety, the sooner the better. Usually manufacturers are allowed a 60-day grace period from the time of issue of a recall until the time that recall repairs begin."
