There have been problems with magazines falling out prematurely, especially with the pinky extension base plate on the magazine. It appears that the pinky extension plate permits the user to add additional pressure to the release with the pressure on the base plate.

The recall provided a reinforcing roll pin in the plastic magazine release. This has proven inadequate and they are now going to a metal magazine release. This may be the part causing the wait.

The free magazine was promised with the new base plate. They ran out of the new base plates so they shipped the magazines with the old base plate and promised to send a replacement as soon as available. The magazines are functional with either plate.

The trigger being worse or not is still difficult to confirm. If you fired a lot of rounds or dry fire a lot before sending in the LCP for recall processing, you may lose some of the smoothing that takes place during break-in. I do a lot of dry-firing to maintain my proficiency in smooth trigger discipline. Mine was back to pre-recall status quickly.
