I don't think so, these will be quite a different market than anything they sell new. I can't see them giving up 3+ billion in returned profit and just scrapping them. These car companies try and save 50 cents on a junky switch to add a few dollars profit. I do think they would be better trickling them out as best they can. Putting them all on the market at once will be too much.
