Didn't they end up doing a recall and replacing the defective cards for free, even out of warranty?

Key phrase being 'end up'. After denying for a long time, forcing many people to pay out of pocket for repairs (which weren't retroactively reimbursed). Hardly stellar customer service.

I think you're thinking of the GeForce 8600M GT recall, for 2007+ models. I went through that one myself. So far my mid-2011 MBP has been without major issues.

Yup, I think you're right.
